Annual Enrollment

Annual enrollment for 2023-2024 is July 15-31, and we’re here to walk you through your election options. During this time, you may change your group insurance benefit elections and add, update or remove eligible dependents from coverage using the MyUTBenefits website. 

UT SELECT Premium Changes

As shared in last year’s updates, an additional increase to UT SELECT premiums was a possibility this year as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic’s ongoing impact on the health care industry.

University leadership worked closely with UT System to advocate for employees and minimize the increase for the 2023-2024 plan year. If you are a full-time benefits-eligible employee who carries employee-only coverage, you will see no increase to your monthly premium thanks to premium sharing from the state and UTSA.

If you are a part-time benefits-eligible employee, or your plan includes coverage for a spouse, children or family members, increases are shown below.

Other Changes

• The maximum contribution for the Healthcare Flexible Spending Account will increase to $3,050.
• Headway Behavioral Health providers added to UT SELECT BCBS of Texas network.
• GLP-1 weight loss medications will no longer be covered under the UT SELECT prescription plan.
• Employee and employer contributions for the Teacher Retirement System (TRS) will both increase to 8.25%.
