Enrollment Action Items

To help you make the right enrollment decisions for you and your family, be sure to:

Review your recent benefits information and know your enrollment deadline.

Evaluate your available coverage options during your enrollment period because they may have changed.

Review your benefit costs including monthly contributions, annual deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums and copayments/coinsurance for your benefit plans because they also may have changed for 2013.

Check your medical coverage status, which could be network or outside-network-area(ONA) depending on your home ZIP code. This status can change from year to year based on changes in the provider network.

Review your health plan comparison charts on the AT&T Benefits Center website to compare costs and see detailed information about many of your benefits including medical, prescription drug, dental and more. These charts will have updated plan details and cost information, which may have changed from the previous year.

Review your Summary Plan Descriptions(SPDs) and Summaries of Material Modifications(SMMs). These documents provide details on your benefit plans and programs including eligibility requirements.

If you have a change-in-status event (such as a marriage or birth of a child) that requires you to change your coverage between now and the end of the year, you must go to the AT&T Benefits Center website and make two separate elections. First, change your coverage for the rest of 2012. Next, update your elections for 2013. For a full list of change-in-status events, refer to your SPD.
