Enrolling in Your Benefits

Your enrollment period is an important time to review your benefit options and choose the best coverage for you and your family. You can enroll for benefits within 30 days of eligibility or during the annual open enrollment period. No enrollments or changes will be allowed after your initial enrollment period or after open enrollment ends, unless you experience a qualifying event.

How to Enroll

On the Benefitfirst enrollment site, follow these steps:

  • New Hires: Choose ENROLL IN or DECLINE BENEFITS AS A NEWLY ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEE.
  • Existing Employees: If you want to make a family status change, use your Cabarrus County Username and Password to login to the Benefitfirst site, then choose the appropriate transaction and click CONTINUE.
  • Check your personal information for accuracy and click NEXT.
  • Starting with the medical screen, complete your selections. Choose the plan with the level of coverage you want and add your dependents (if applicable).
  • At the final enrollment screen, you will be required to review your elections and certify them by entering a password/pin for signature. Your PIN is your “birth year” – “the last 4 digits of your SSN”. Example Password/PIN: 1976-4561.
  • Click the SUBMIT button.
