If you are an employee turning 26
Happy Birthday!
If you're covered as a dependent under a parent's health plan, your benefit coverage will typically end when you turn 26.
Losing coverage is considered a life event, which means you have 30 days from the date you lost coverage to enroll in A-B's benefits.
Access the Benefits Portal, submit the life event below, and complete the enrollment process.
Please make sure to submit your A-B benefit selections within 30 days of your loss of coverage date. If you miss this window, your next chance to enroll will be Annual Enrollment.
Are you eligible for Vacation Buy and you want to purchase 2023 vacation days?
Vacation Buy is only available during Annual Enrollment (until 11/18 at 11:59pm CT), so please make your 2023 vacation buy elections during Annual Enrollment if you wish to buy vacation.
