With the start of the open enrollment process a little less than two weeks away, we want to let you know of another resource that may help you understand Tribune’s 2012 Blue Cross Blue Shield medical benefit plans and how they work. This week, we are providing access to an online webinar designed to enable you to make the best choices for you and your family. The webinar is being made available in lieu of hosting employee meetings at each business unit; it’s much more efficient and cost effective.

The process for accessing the webinar is easy, and it’s available to you at work or from your home computer. You can view the webinar at your own pace, stopping at areas where you want to take notes or replaying any sections you would like to see more than once. Here are the steps you’ll need to follow:

1. Go to: http://www.tribune.com/oe2012/

2. Press the play/pause button (the big round button in the middle at the bottom of the player window).

3. The slides will advance on their own, but you can use the arrows on either side of the play/pause button to advance or rewind.

4. You can also pause the presentation to move at your own pace, or download it as a PowerPoint file.

5. If you have questions about the new benefits plans after viewing the presentation, you can get an answer by contacting the

Tribune Benefits Service Center at 800/872-2222 from 8 am CT to 6 pm CT, or by email at askthebsc@tribune.com.

As we move forward, we’ll create a Q&A document that will be available on the benefits page of the HR section of Triblink and on the eBenefits website during open enrollment.

Please take advantage of this new tool as you consider your benefit choices for 2012; learn what your options are and what makes the most sense for you and your family. By doing so, you can make the best use of the benefits offered and become a better informed health care consumer.
