LACERS Retired Members Update for November

LACERS OPEN ENROLLMENT ENDS TODAY

Today, November 18 is the last day to make Open Enrollment changes to your LACERS health and dental plans. Open Enrollment changes made by today will become effective on January 1, 2025. Unless you have a qualifying event, the next opportunity to change your LACERS health or dental plan will be next year during the Open Enrollment period for 2026.

IMPORTANT: THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY HOURS

With the Thanksgiving holiday quickly approaching, please note that the LACERS Front Desk will be closed and the LACERS 800 phone number will not be in service November 25 through November 27. Members can still reach LACERS for urgent matters either by leaving a voicemail at (800) 779-8328 or by emailing us at [email protected]. These inquiries will be responded to within 24 hours. LACERS will be closed on November 28 and 29 for the Thanksgiving Holiday.

Please keep these dates in mind and plan ahead if you want to speak with a LACERS representative. We look forward to continuing to assist our Members and wish everyone a wonderful holiday!
