Dental Plans
UC currently provides a choice of two Dental Plans. Currently the full premiums for both plans are paid by the university. You are strongly encouraged to review the Dental Benefits Summary for a comparison. If you are currently seeing a specific dentist and are considering selecting the PMI plan, you should call the dental office to confirm that your dentist participates in the plan.
Vision Plan
UC offers a vision benefit provided by Vision Service Plan (VSP) for active UC employees. This plan provides annual benefits....don’t miss out.
Health Care Reimbursement Account
The Health Care Reimbursement Account (HCRA) allows you to pay for eligible health care expenses not covered by your medical, dental, or vision plans on a pretax, salary reduction basis. This is an excellent opportunity for active UC employees to reduce their health care costs.
