Tell Students: 2023 Open Enrollment Period for the Student Employee Health Plan

The 2023 Open Enrollment Period for the Student Employee Health Plan (SEHP) will run from Tuesday, September 5 through Friday, October 20. Eligible employees have the following options for enrolling in SEHP.

  • Enroll within 45 days of appointment or when the employee becomes first eligible. Coverage begins as of the date the enrollment form is received in the Human Resource Management Office or the date of appointment, whichever is later.
    -- Employees on F-1 or J-1 visas and domestic students at campuses where health insurance is mandated have coverage effective the date of appointment.
  • Enroll within 30 days of a qualifying event. Coverage becomes effective as of the date the enrollment form is received in the Human Resource Management Office or the date of event, whichever is later.
  • Enroll during the Open Enrollment Period. Coverage is effective as of the date the enrollment form is received in the Human Resource Management Office.
  • Enroll at any time as a late enrollee. Coverage becomes effective 30 days from the date the enrollment form is received in the Human Resource Management Office.

The Open Enrollment Period provides employees who were eligible for SEHP last year but chose not to enroll the opportunity to enroll now without the 30-day waiting period otherwise required for late enrollment.

The 2023 SEHP rates may be found on the SUNY website.

The Summary of Benefits and Coverage may be found on the Department of Civil Service website.

Additional information may be located on the Human Resource Management website under Graduate Assistant Benefits Orientations – Health Insurance.
