Salt Lake Community College
Open Enrollment
2
April 25th through May 31st OPEN ENROLLMENT
If you do not make a vision, medical, and/or dental election prior to May 31st, you and any enrolled dependents will remain in the same plan/network for the plan year. Open Enrollment elections cannot be made after MAY 31, 2017. For 2014/2015 the PVC network will be the default plan SLCC is still working out all of the details on how they want to accomplish this. If they roll out the online enrollment system to their employees, then Regence will move everyone that is currently in the PAR network to the PVC network and employees will need to go online and make an election if they want to move back to the PAR network. If they decide not to roll out the online enrollment sytem to their employees, we will probably leave employees in the network they are in today, but they will need to make an physical election, mostly likely via an app, to remain in the PAR network. Focal Point members will remain in the PFP network unless they want to make a change at open enrollment.
