Once the designated Annual Enrollment period has closed, employees have one opportunity to revise their annual enrollment elections, provided they submit the request to Benefits Administration by no later than 4:30 p.m. CT on Dec. 1 of the current plan year. Timely submitted revisions will become effective on Jan. 1 of the upcoming plan year.
If you miss this deadline, you may submit an Annual Enrollment appeal. The written appeal should include details of why you missed the deadline. You may submit your appeal by email to benefits.administration@tn.gov, by fax to 615.741.8196, or you may upload it in Zendesk. The appeal should include your full name, Edison ID or last four digits of your Social Security number, date of birth and address. You should also include an Enrollment Change Application form if you are adding or changing coverage along with dependent verification (if you are adding dependents), or an Insurance Cancel Request Application form if you are trying to cancel coverage.
