This year for Open Enrollment the Division of Statewide Payroll and the Office of Group Insurance have combined efforts to make this the first endeavor into Employee Self Service using IPOPS. Currently these items are in the testing phase, you will receive an additional memo when they are available.
During the Medical Open Enrollment period the only items that can be changed are:
Changing from PPO to Traditional or Traditional to PPO
or
Changing from Pre-Tax to Post Tax or Post Tax to Pre-Tax
Changes to dependent information or dropping insurance benefits can be done at any time. These changes are a separate action and need to be done as a separate application from the open enrollment application.
Since all employees will not necessarily need to use the self service feature at this point, we would like to use our payroll contacts to be the experts at your individual agencies. At this point in time we would like to provide training to this limited group and ask that you assist your agency employees. This is a fairly straight forward process with a slight change to the IPOPS appearance, functionality remains basically the same.
Attached you will find an instructional Powerpoint presentation and a word document. These may provide sufficient training for you and also should be used to assist your employees. Copies of both training aids can be found on the DSP Training Web Page.
For those of you who either would like additional training, or just to see it live for the first time, several training sessions will be offered. At this time we do not want to open it up to all employees, and would like to keep our audience primarily to those of you receiving this memo.
Training will be on the 4th Floor of the JR Williams Building (Hall of Mirrors), and although registration is not necessarily required we would like to know if you will be attending and what session fits your schedule. The sessions are scheduled for an hour but we do not anticipate this taking more than about 30 minutes.
The training schedule is:
| Date | Start Time | Start Time |
| Monday, April 25th | 8:00 AM | 1:30 PM |
| Friday, April 29th | 8:00 AM | 1:30 PM |
