REMINDER: Open Enrollment ends on midnight, Tuesday, November 27.

You have until Tuesday, November 27, to visit the
<blocked::http://atyourservice.ucop.edu/open_enrollment/index.html> Open
Enrollment website (
<blocked::http://atyourservice.ucop.edu/open_enrollment/index.html>
http://atyourservice.ucop.edu/open_enrollment/index.html) to consider UC
health and welfare benefit plan changes you may want to make for 2008. We
encourage you to take any actions soon and not wait until the last minute to
avoid any delays in accessing the website.

It's particularly important for  those currently enrolled in PacifiCare to
take enrollment actions during Open Enrollment because their plans will not
be available next year.
<blocked::http://atyourservice.ucop.edu/open_enrollment/employees/e_disc_pla
ns.html> Detailed information about the discontinuation of these plans and
options for next year is at the Open Enrollment website.

You need to go to the Open Enrollment website to make any plan enrollment or
coverage changes for next year. Actions you may take during Open Enrollment
are the following:

.         Change to a different medical plan. 

.         Change to a different dental plan (California residents only). 

.         Enroll eligible family members in your health plans. 

.         Enroll or re-enroll in the Health Care Reimbursement Account
(HCRA) and/or Dependent Care Reimbursement Account (DepCare). Even if      

             you are currently enrolled in these plans, you must re-enroll
to participate in 2008. 

.         Enroll in the ARAG Legal Plan, or if already enrolled, add family
members. 

.         Opt out of your medical, dental, or vision (employees only) plan,
or enroll in a new plan if you previously opted out. 

.         Change participation in the Tax Savings on Insurance Premiums
(TIP) program (enrollment is automatic unless you opt out). 

.         Taking into account plan changes for 2008, if you are satisfied
with your current coverage and do not need to make any changes for next
year,   

          you need not take any Open Enrollment action (except for HCRA and
DepCare enrollment). 

             Open Enrollment actions will be effective as of January 1, 2008

 

For further questions, please call the Benefits Office at X24766.
