The following message is only for agency staff involved with benefits open enrollment for agency employees, such as monitoring enrollment activities.

AGENCY BENEFITS ENROLLMENT REPORTS
The Division of Personnel Services distributes two important benefits reports twice during October. These two reports are:
(1) KWEBFSA – agency employees’ enrollment activity in Flexible Spending
Accounts;
(2) KWEBCHG – agency employees who have completed group health insurance
elections for Plan Year 2006.

The two reports will be distributed to agencies via the MVS mailbox and can be accessed using WS_FTP. Move the reports to the folder where you normally transfer files. This year, the files were created in either Excel or QuattroPro, so you can open them using the appropriate software for your agency. We will be moving the files out to you throughout the day so check again if you cannot locate your agency’s reports right away.

The first report is named KWEBFSA.your 3-digit agency number.OUT (for example, KWEBFSA.173.OUT). The report lists employees in your agency who are currently enrolled in a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for Plan Year
2005 but have not yet enrolled in an FSA for Plan Year 2006. The report also lists employees who have either enrolled or re-enrolled in an FSA for Plan Year 2006. Please remind employees that they must enroll in an FSA each year even if they are enrolled for the current year. This report was run on October 12, 2005.

The second report is named KWEBCHG.your 3-digit agency number.OUT (for example, KWEBCHG.173.OUT). The report lists employees in your agency who have made their group health insurance elections. We suggest you compare this report with all of the benefits eligible employees in your agency. 
This report was run on October 13, 2005.

Important Note: A KWEBFSA report was not created for your agency if none of your employees are enrolled in an FSA for either the current or new plan year. A KWEBCHG report was not created if none of your agency employees have completed group health insurance elections.

We will distribute both reports twice during open enrollment – today and again later in the month. We will send another message when we send the reports again later this month.

If you have technical questions about the reports, please contact Patti Pearce at (785) 296-7232; email patti.pearce@da.state.ks.us
