Enrollment, Decoded: Exploring the Options for Your Healthcare

Open enrollment is one of those windows that’s easy to rush through, click through the same options as last year, and hope for the best. But the plan you pick affects your wallet all year long, and a few minutes of real comparison now can save real money later.

In our October member webinar, we broke down how to actually evaluate your healthcare options this enrollment season, what the terms mean, what trips people up, and how to choose with confidence instead of guesswork. Watch the full recording on demand.

What we covered:

• The core plan types (HMO, PPO, HDHP) and what actually differs between them

• Premiums vs. deductibles vs. out-of-pocket max, and how they interact

• HSAs and FSAs: what they are, who qualifies, and how to use them strategically

• Common enrollment mistakes (auto-renewing without checking, ignoring life changes, underestimating the true cost of care)

• How to match a plan to your actual healthcare usage, not just the lowest premium

What to expect:

Fruition Mentors Gilles Hudelot, Kim Knight, and Danny Steffensmeier came together for an organic panel discussion on evaluating healthcare enrollment options.
