TRS-ActiveCare annual enrollment dates are here!

Annual Enrollment 
This the one time of year that you can add a new health plan or new dependents without experiencing a special enrollment event.

TRS-ActiveCare annual enrollment period for the 2017-2018 plan year will be  July 1 through August 22.  Please make note of these dates before leaving for the summer.

Benefits and Premiums
TRS and Aetna will share benefit and premium information once the TRS Board of Trustees approves them at their meeting on June 1-2. The TRS Board approves premiums in June in order to generate enough claims data so premiums are accurate for the upcoming year.

Please note that if there are any changes to the TRS-ActiveCare plans, you will be notified following the June TRS Board of Trustees meeting.
