UAH’s annual Open Enrollment period begins tomorrow, October 14, and runs through November 4! This is your once-a-year opportunity to review your current benefits, learn about upcoming changes for the 2027 plan year, and make any necessary elections or updates to your coverage.
Be on the lookout for more information tomorrow from benefits@uah.edu!
