The DRB is currently experiencing an outage with myRnB, affecting all applications including AlaskaCare Employee Open Enrollment. We are actively working to restore access but do not know at this time when service will be restored. The Open Enrollment period for Employees will be extended due to this outage. Thank you for your continued patience.
