Upcoming Open Enrollment for PERACare

Mark your calendar for October 20 through November 20 so you don’t miss PERACare Open Enrollment. PERA will send current PERACare enrollees a 2026 Open Enrollment mailing that details changes for 2026. Open enrollment information will also be available on the PERACare webpage starting in October.

PERACare is the voluntary health, dental, and vision benefits program for PERA retirees and their eligible dependents. You can enroll in any available types of coverage during open enrollment; you can also make changes to your coverage during this time.

Do you have questions about PERACare? You’re not alone! Health care can bring a lot of questions for those in retirement or preparing to retire soon. PERA offers webinars that explain the retiree health care, dental, and vision plan options year-round. You can attend now to learn about current plan options or attend a webinar during open enrollment to learn about the options for 2026.
