Your Enrollment Checklist

Take these three steps to prepare for open enrollment, and sign up for your 2025 Ancestry benefits.

1. Review What’s New for 2025

Check out the 2025 Benefits Guide to learn about benefits program details and 2025 costs. Here are the changes we are making for 2025.

Medical Rate Increases

For 2025, you will not see any change in benefits coverage. However, to reflect the rise in healthcare costs, you will see a slightly higher increase in premiums as compared to prior years. We remain committed to providing quality healthcare options and encourage you to review your choices carefully during the enrollment period.

HSA 1600 Plan Deductible Increase

The annual deductible for UHC HSA Medical $1,600 Plan (family coverage) will increase to $1,650 to comply with IRS regulations. The employer HSA contributions will remain the same as prior year.

UHC Medical Plan Naming Updates

To accommodate the annual IRS limit changes, we will be renaming our UHC Medical Plans to be more general. The new plan names are as follows:

Previous Plan Name
New Plan Name
UnitedHealthcare PPO $500 Plan
UnitedHealthcare PPO Plan A
UnitedHealthcare HDHP UHC $1600 Plan
UnitedHealthcare HDHP Plan B
UnitedHealthcare HDHP UHC $2500 Plan
UnitedHealthcare HDHP Plan C

2025 Flexible Spending Account (FSA) Limit Increase

The maximum IRS limit will be increased to $3,300. It is your responsibility to complete your benefits elections by the November 18 deadline. Note that if you want to participate in an FSA, you must enroll in Health Care and Dependent Care FSAs each year.

2025 Health Savings Account Limit Increase

The maximum IRS limit will be increased to $4,300 per individual and up to $8,550 per family.

New Diabetes Program: Twin Health

Starting Spring 2025, UHC members who are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, may be eligible for Twin Health, a personalized health program that uses cutting-edge technology to improve metabolism and overall well-being. Twin Health will reach out directly to eligible members with details about how to enroll.

New Well-Being App: Calm

We’re excited to announce that, if you are enrolled in a UHC or Kaiser medical plan, you will have access to Calm Health by logging in to your medical plan. Calm is the number-one app for sleep and meditation. It’s designed to help lower stress and anxiety and provides a wide range of resources to support your well-being.

401(k) Plan Updates

You will soon have more flexibility to customize your savings strategy with the option to elect a percentage or a dollar amount when making changes to your contribution elections.

If you are between the ages of 60 and 63 beginning in the calendar year 2025, you will be allowed an increased catch-up contribution amount, pending IRS limits, to be announced.

It is your responsibility to complete your benefits elections by the November 18 deadline. We cannot make any exceptions if you miss the deadline, select the wrong plan or level of coverage, or fail to enroll the correct dependents.

After the November 18 deadline, you can only change your benefits elections if you experience a qualifying life event, such as a marriage or the birth of a child. Changes must be made within 30 days of a qualifying life event.
