Preparing for open enrollment? Getting health plan information, choosing a plan, and enrolling may be new for some employees. Check out the new open enrollment communications available to share with your employees. You can access the
open enrollment page through the Employee Communications Center.

Digital resources are key
Many businesses are looking for ways to engage their employees virtually instead of in person. A live or recorded webinar, an email campaign, and regular reminders will give your employees an opportunity to hear about their plan choices and have their questions addressed.
We want our employers to say
"Premera gives me the information and resources I need to make my company's open
enrollment period a success."
Pro tips for open enrollment
- Start communicating early and don't stop.
- Follow the steps listed above to sign in to your secure employer account, and check out the Open
Enrollment Resources website. Use all the resources available to help your employees feel comfortable making their health plan decisions.
- The new open enrollment content is available in various lengths to meet a variety of communication needs. Share information with your employees in as many ways as possible–through your company newsletter, on your company intranet, by hosting
an open enrollment webinar, through email blasts, and more.
- This year, your employees will have access to a new digital resource to learn about Premera and the benefits and resources available. The link for this website is listed within all the new open enrollment materials for sharing
