You may enroll in Medicare and the Trust Benefit Plans up to 3 months before your 65th birthday, and no later than 3 months after the month of your birthday.

October 15th – December 31st, 2018
Already 65 and new to the Trust Plan?
Submit your enrollment by November 9th, 2018 to assure your policy materials and ID cards are received before January 1, 2019.
Current Trust Plan Members:
Not making any changes? No action is needed. Your annual enrollment packet will include your 2018 Summary of Current Elections. If you want to keep these same choices for 2019, and the email address, mailing address, and phone number shown are correct, you don’t need to do a thing. If you do have updates or changes, submit them by November 9th, 2018 to assure processing by January 1, 2019.
Medical Plan and Dental Plan elections are made on a calendar year basis.
