Santa
Barbara County Employee Flexible Benefits Plan
2009
Open Enrollment - Nov. 3 to Nov. 21
This year's open enrollment
includes all Flexible Benefits and
Health Insurance plan options. This second
enrollment period for health insurance is being
offered so that both the flexible benefits and
health insurance plans will run on the same calendar
plan year.
All current health insurance enrollments or enrollment
changes you make this open enrollment will be
effective from January 1 to December 31, 2009.
Changes to your health or flexible benefits coverage
during the 2009 year can only be made if you have
a "qualifying
change in status" during the new calendar
plan year.

Flexible Benefits Plan Options
– the cafeteria style benefits described in
the Flex Benefits Plan Announcement allow you to
use pre-tax salary to pay for certain health, life,
accident and the health care and dependent care
spending accounts.
Health Insurance Benefits Options
– For a description of the medical, dental
and vision options available to you, see the 2008
Health Benefits Summary posted on the Health
Benefits webpage. There are no changes to the
plan choices, coverage or premium amounts for January
2009.. If you do not make any changes to your current
plan choices, they will remain in effect until January
2010. Because the health plan year is now on a calendar
year, there will be no health insurance open enrollment
period again until November 2009.
