Putting together a winning team requires drafting the right players, and CU’s annual Open Enrollment is more likely to be a success if you start scouting now. This year’s Open Enrollment runs April 21-May 9, and all benefits-eligible employees will have the opportunity to change their health plan enrollments, modify optional insurance policies and add or remove dependents. Before you take the field, take the time to verify vital information and to compare your current health plan and insurance enrollments to ensure you lock down your MVPs (Most Valuable Plans).

Anticipation reverberated from a crowd of more than 160 fourth-year medical students at the University of Colorado School of Medicine on March 21 as they counted down the seconds until they could open the envelopes in their hands.

The day, known as Match Day, is an annual event where medical students across the country simultaneously learn the residency program they have “matched” into.
