Open Enrollment
It’s time to Enroll! Employee Benefit Open Enrollment 2022
Employee Benefit Open Enrollment begins October 25th and will close at 6pm on November 15th. All changes will be effective January 1, 2022.
It is important to remember that this is an “active” Open Enrollment, which means you must enroll or your coverage will end.
Please watch the Open Enrollment Video on the InforESS Benefit Information page for important information regarding changes for the new year. The updated Benefit Guide and full Benefit Presentation is a great source of information for all your benefits. Once you have reviewed the Benefit Information and have made your decisions, click on Open Enrollment to select your 2022 benefits.
If you still have questions, there are a number of virtual meetings scheduled. See the attached OE Notice for details and for the link to Calendly where you can schedule an individual meeting with me.
Open Enrollment is your annual opportunity to review, enroll in or make changes to medical, dental, vision Life, LTD, HSA, FSA and voluntary benefits, as well as add or drop coverage for eligible dependents:
Go to the Benefits Information page on the Infor Employee Self Service portal for more detailed information for these plans such as plan documents, summaries, physician lists, and more to help you make your benefit enrollment decisions.

By participating in the REACH Employee Wellness program, you will save $780 on health insurance premiums by completing Level 1 and another $520 on your spouse’s premiums if they participate as well. Based on your participation, these amounts are reflected in the premiums you will see as you enroll. Additionally, you can still earn up to $520 in Wellness Credit by completing all levels of REACH.
MyChart Bedside Coming Soon to myRiverside App
Patients and their family members will be able to take advantage of a new feature coming to Riverside’s myRiverside App on Monday, October 4th. MyChart Bedside is Riverside’s free inpatient portal that allows patients to be more involved in their care while in the hospital. Patients will be able to see what medications they’re taking, their schedule for the day, and upcoming treatment plans. Any questions or concerns can be sent via secure messaging along with requests directly to the patient’s care team.
“Improving the patient experience is a top priority for Riverside and that often starts with easier access to health information,” said Phil Kambic, Riverside’s President and CEO.
Family members or other proxies can also take advantage of the new myRiverside feature so they can see important information regarding an inpatient stay. To access, patients or family members simply log into their myRiverside account and the “Your Hospital Stay” dashboard appears with features tailored to the specific hospital stay and care.
Bedside features include:
- View treatment team: Read role descriptions for each member of your care team
- Education materials: See education materials assigned by your clinician
- Medications issued: View medications issued while you’re admitted
- Hospital health issues: See an overview of your primary health issue(s)
- Happening soon: View medication administration times, surgeries, and appointments
- Test results: View labs from any tests administered during your stay
