Changes for 2008
NEW CIGNA Choice Fund - HRA/PPO Medical Plan
UC will provide a new medical plan that combines a Health
Reimbursement Account with a Preferred Provider Organization
(HRA/PPO) plan. The CIGNA Choice Fund plan
corresponds to the plan currently offered by Definity
Health. It will be available to UC employees in the U.S.,
except Hawaii.
In the CIGNA Choice
Fund, the employee has a UC-funded
health reimbursement account that pays first to help meet the
member's annual deductible. All in-network preventive care is
covered at 100 percent.
In-network behavioral health benefits will be provided by United
Behavioral Health (UBH).
Employees who are enrolled in CIGNA at the time of retirement
and who are eligible to continue UC medical coverage will be able
to continue the plan into retirement until eligible for Medicare.
