Portico Updates: Annual Enrollment, Personal Wellness, and New Podcast Episodes

Ready for Annual Enrollment?

Watch for an email from Portico when your Annual Enrollment window is open. This is your opportunity to make decisions about health coverage, pre-tax retirement contributions, vision care services, supplemental life insurance, beneficiaries, and more. Questions about coverage or have a change of call pending? The Portico Customer Care Center, 800.352.2876, is always here to help.

 PWA Dollar Countdown

If you’ve received an email from Portico letting you know you have a Personal Wellness Account balance that needs to be spent by the end of the year, this is a great opportunity to stock your travel first aid kit, get new glasses, or donate feminine hygiene products to your local food shelf.  Check your PWA balance on the Further site via myPortico, review the eligible expenses list, and be sure to use your PWA dollars before Dec. 31, 2023 and submit receipts for reimbursement by Apr. 15, 2024.
