Renew your Opt-Out early for 2024 Open Enrollment!

Transit Employees Health and Welfare will begin accepting 2025 Opt-Out requests from October 1st through November 15th. 

Please note that members must renew their Opt-Out election every year during Open Enrollment.

*Effective January 1, 2025, members with an outstanding premium balance may still opt-out of plan coverage. However, they will not be eligible for the $1,500 premium conversion payment until the past due premium balance is fully paid.

To complete the opt-out process, please provide the following documents to our office:

• Opt-Out form
• Proof of Health insurance coverage (copy of card)
• WMATA Employee ID

Remember, all Opt-Out requests must be renewed annually during Open Enrollment, or you will be placed in the medical/dental default plan effective January 1, 2025.

Opt-out requests received after Open Enrollment through January 1, 2025, will receive a prorated share of the annual Premium Conversion payment.
