Open Enrollment for 2027 will begin rolling out on Monday, October 19. Watch for your email invite from Portico beginning on that day. These are sent in batches, so yours might arrive a day or two after October 19. Everyone will have two weeks to complete the enrollment process. A reminder that, on Wednesday, October 14, from 9–10:30 a.m. in OCC 10, the seminary’s Portico representatives will be on campus to present plan details and answer your questions. Calendar invites and the Overview of Benefit Changes have been sent out.
And a second reminder that, as announced last month, we have two changes that will impact employee out-of-pocket costs: (1) an increase in medical plan premiums and (2) an increase in annual deductibles. If you have questions about these changes or about Open Enrollment generally, please contact Carrie Johnson (cjohnson007@luthersem.edu) or Joe Ahrens (jahrens001@luthersem.edu).
