Making Open Enrollment Work for You: How MyCharlie Supports HR Teams
Open enrollment season. For many HR professionals, those words mean stress, long hours, and endless employee questions.
For HR teams managing benefits for 1,000+ employees, open enrollment is both a challenge and an opportunity. The challenge? Getting employees to actively engage instead of mindlessly clicking through the same selections. The opportunity? Using this moment when everyone's focused on health to introduce tools that create lasting impact.
Why Open Enrollment Is the Perfect Time
Everyone's Already Paying Attention
During open enrollment, you have a captive audience. Employees aren't ignoring health benefit emails; they're actively seeking information. This natural engagement window makes it the ideal moment to introduce MyCharlie.
It Fits Naturally Into Existing Efforts
MyCharlie complements your existing wellness initiatives rather than adding another standalone program. You're enhancing what you're already doing, not piling on more work.
Leverage Carrier Incentives
Many insurance carriers already offer wellness participation rewards. MyCharlie helps employees access these existing incentives while giving you better health data.
How MyCharlie Changes Open Enrollment
Year-Round Communication
Instead of cramming everything into a few weeks, communicate with employees throughout the year. Push important dates and educational content directly to their phones when they need it.
Continuous Health Monitoring
Replace the logistical nightmare of coordinating one-time biometric screenings. Employees monitor their vitals year-round with a 60-second face scan that delivers eight physiological measurements. No scheduling, no vendor coordination required.
Personalized Guidance
MyCharlie's 24/7 nursing team handles employee questions about health data and benefit choices. This takes pressure off your HR staff while giving employees better support than they'd get waiting for a callback.
Incentives That Work
Tie rewards directly to open enrollment activities like completing health assessments. Employees see immediate value, which drives participation rates well above typical wellness programs.
Year-Round Impact
The real benefit isn't just easier open enrollment; it's sustained engagement. Employees who start during open enrollment keep using the app to track health metrics, connect with coaches, and address issues before they become costly claims.
Getting Started
Implementation is straightforward. Introduce the Virtual Health Check during your next open enrollment as part of biometric screening. Employees download the app, complete their face scan, get immediate results. Our nursing team engages high-risk employees proactively. You have full visibility from day one.

Open enrollment will always require work. But with MyCharlie, it becomes less about managing chaos and more about setting employees up for a healthier year.
