We are now officially in our Benefits Open Enrollment period!
Through Tuesday, June 5, 2018, you will need to log in and make your new Kaiser Medical Benefit selection, as well as enroll in additional benefits such as dental, vision or life insurance for the coming year. During this time, you are also able to waive coverage and/or add or remove coverage for dependents. All this can be done through our benefits portal, www.dsst.bswift.com.
For this enrollment season you must log into your bswift account to make your benefits selections. If you do not select benefits or waive coverage, you will automatically be enrolled in the Kaiser HDHP - employee only plan.
Click here for a step-by-step guide to an online tool with tips for navigating the open enrollment process! To begin enrollment, go to www.dsst.bswift.com and log in:
Username: First initial + last name
Password: Automatically reset to the last 4 digits of your social security number
If you are waiving coverage and need a letter form DSST stating that your coverage through Aetna has ended effective June 30, please email humanresources@scienceandtech.org, and we will email you the document.
