In making the announcement, Dillman said that the company engaged associates through a variety of methods, including focus groups, formal surveys, 'town hall' meetings and informal conversations to determine what was most important to them.

Also this year, Wal-Mart is taking additional steps to help associates get information about the enrollment process and coverage options.

"Enrollment Made Easy," a DVD designed to walk associates through the enrollment process, will be mailed this month to the home of every Wal-Mart associate.

The video explains the changes and enhancements to the benefits package, outlines steps to personalizing medical choices and previews decision-support tools and how to use them.

Associates can also go online to access materials and enrollment forms, and use a specially designed web-based tool that helps them evaluate the coverage that best fits their needs.
