Open enrollment isn't just a time for employees to make benefits decisions. It's also an opportunity for benefits teams to listen and reflect.

The questions employees ask, the resources they use, the places they get stuck, and the decisions they make can all provide valuable insight into the benefits experience. They may reveal opportunities to improve communication, education, navigation, or your broader benefits strategy for the year ahead.

What is open enrollment teaching you about your employees' benefits experience?

In this week's Benefits, Translated, we're digging into embedded vs. aggregate family deductibles.

Two plans can both have a "family deductible" but work differently when one family member has significant healthcare expenses.

With an embedded deductible, an individual family member may be able to meet their individual deductible before the full family deductible is reached. With an aggregate deductible, the family generally works toward the full family deductible before applicable plan cost-sharing begins.

It's an important distinction when comparing coverage, and one employees may not realize they need to look for.

Ideas for what terms we should break down next? Let us know!

Financial wellness has expanded well beyond retirement planning.

Employees may be navigating student loans, everyday financial decisions, emergency savings, family expenses, and retirement planning. Often, they are balancing several of these priorities at once.

For employers, that raises an important question: Does your financial wellness strategy reflect the different financial needs across your workforce?

The goal doesn't have to be offering a separate solution for every financial challenge. Instead, it's creating a strategy that helps employees find relevant support when they need it.

Your employees' open enrollment questions can tell you a lot about how well your communications are working.

If the same questions keep coming up, consider whether the answer could be easier to find in the first place. Use what you're hearing to improve communications while enrollment is still underway!

New guidance is giving employers more clarity around the rules for health-contingent wellness programs.

The new FAQs address when wellness rewards must take effect after an employee completes a reasonable alternative standard, as well as when employers are required to disclose the availability of those alternatives in employee communications.

For employers sponsoring wellness programs, now is a good time to review incentives, participant communications, and the processes used to administer rewards or surcharges.

We’re back with another Benefits, Translated, to discuss copays.

A copay is a fixed amount you may pay for certain covered healthcare services. But seeing a copay listed on your benefits materials doesn't necessarily mean that same amount applies every time you receive care.

Depending on your plan and the service, a copay, deductible, or coinsurance may apply.

Knowing how these pieces work together can make it easier to anticipate healthcare costs and make informed decisions when seeking care.

Open enrollment communications often do a good job explaining what changed. But employees also need help understanding what those changes mean for them.

As you review your OE communications, look beyond whether the information is technically included. Ask whether employees can easily understand how a change could affect their costs, coverage, decisions, or next steps.

One simple test: After reading the communication, does an employee know what they need to do differently? If not, there may be an opportunity to add context.
