Baylor Collegeof Medicine
2026 Open Enrollment Virtual Benefits Fair – November 5, 2025, from 8 am to 5 pm CST

To offer you the best virtual experience, this year’s open enrollment will be accessible online.

Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) is continuing to host their benefits fair virtually to accommodate the changing environment and offer those that do not work near the main campus an opportunity to speak with our vendors. Hosting this event virtually will allow BCM the chance to reach all their employees regardless of their location, in or out of the US. This fair is similar to our previous onsite benefits fairs, except employees and their spouses/domestic partners will have an opportunity to become familiar with the health services offered, ask specific benefits questions, and receive detailed information about changes for 2026, all from the safety of their home or office.

Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to interact with the HR-Benefits, Retirement, and BCM Well-being teams on Wednesday, Nov 5 from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. In addition, you will have the opportunity to learn about the benefits available to you firsthand from the vendors.

Highpoints that the BCM 2026 Open Enrollment Benefits Fair has to offer:

  • Review expected changes to your benefits for 2026
  • Online chat capabilities with HR-Benefits Representatives
  • Interaction with external vendors at virtual booths
  • Ability to download resources to review later

Visit the HR-Benefits InTouch page for detailed information on changes for next year. 2026 Open Enrollment changes are effective January 1, 2026.
