Annual Open Enrollment is that time of year when employees can enroll in benefits or make changes to existing benefits. Want to elect dental coverage or add dependents to your existing coverage? You can do that during Open Enrollment.  July is Pinnacle’s month for enrolling in ancillary products, such as limited health plans, dental, vision, life insurance, accident, hospital indemnity short term disability and critical illness options.  These products are available to clients who do not already have another month designated as the Annual Enrollment Month. 

Note that clients offering Major Medical health insurance will not have Open Enrollment at this time.  Their annual enrollment will match their Major Medical renewal date (usually in December-January).

Offering employee benefits is a great tool for recruiting and retaining your employees. Pinnacle has a selection of voluntary plans at reasonable prices.  We negotiate benefits and prices based on a large group to give you the most value.  These plans are available to full-time employees (averaging 30 hours per week).

Pinnacle’s Annual Benefits Open Enrollment period for employees will occur July 1 – July 22, 2021, with the coverage taking effect on August 1, 2021. 

Remember that current employee benefit choices automatically roll over unless we receive a change or cancellation by July 22nd.  We are pleased to announce that virtually every benefit being offered has no rate increase for the upcoming year!  A web link for the Open Enrollment is available here:  http://sportclips.pinnaclepeo.com/services/annual-benefits-enrollment-2021-2022.  Post this article in your Breakroom.

Our Benefits Department is available to you and your employees at (866) 344-4477 or benefits@pinnaclepeo.com.  We look forward to serving all your benefits needs!
