Where does a current employee go to see what their current benefits elections are? I would like to review what I have in totality so I can make an informed decision on what I might change for this upcoming year. Thank you.

Your current plan elections are stored in Employee Self Service. From the Mayo Clinic intranet homepage, click on HR Connect. On the HR Connect homepage, under HR System links, click on Employee Self Service. Log in with your LANID and password. Then select Bookmarks>Employee Self-Service>Benefits>Current Benefits.

When using a in home day care, I assume we simply need to have the provider give us a receipt, then turn in the receipt online for reimbursement?
