Contact the UNC Benefits Support Center at 919-962-3071 for assistance.

If you haven’t already done so, please go ahead and complete your Open Enrollment for UNC-Chapel Hill benefits.
The last day of Open Enrollment is Oct. 29, 2022, but please do not wait until the last minute! Select the benefit plans that meet your needs and complete the tobacco attestation to lower your premium for your health coverage.
If you are currently enrolled for health coverage in the State Health Plan and you do not take action, you and your eligible dependents will be automatically enrolled in the 70/30 plan for 2022 and you will pay a higher premium for failing to complete the tobacco attestation.
If you act now, the Benefits and Leave Team is available to assist via the UNC Benefits Support Center at 919-962-3071. View available hours and/or schedule a Zoom appointment on the UNC Open Enrollment webpage.
