Consider your needs
It may feel easiest to just pick the same benefits year after year. However, it's important to double-check that you have the right support for you and your family. Ask yourself:
- Do I need to plan for any new medical needs this year? For example, a surgery, dental work or a pregnancy?
- If something unexpected happens to me or my loved ones, will my family have the financial protection we need?
- How do my benefits compare to those my spouse/partner may have through their employer?
- Are there any big life changes coming my way? For example, a move, a new family member or a significant change in my financial situation?
