If you were enrolled in the Vision Service Plan (VSP) as an employee, you and your eligible family members may continue coverage on a voluntary basis, with premiums fully paid by you if:

• You were enrolled when you left UC employment
• Your retirement date is within 120 days of your separation from employment; and
• Your coverage is continuous until the date your retirement income begins.

Enrollment and premiums will not be handled through the University's retirement application or pension deduction. The University has contracted with VSP to provide all administrative services. VSP will be using a company called AdminAmerica to handle enrollment and billing. You pay the full premium and make arrangements directly through AdminAmerica for premium payments.

Your Benefits Office or department should provide you with a Retiree Vision Enrollment Packet during the retirement counseling process.

2009 Plan Costs
You may choose quarterly or annual payments.

Changes in Status/Level of Coverage
If you have a newly eligible family member, you will have another PIE to enroll yourself and your eligible family member(s). You must request enrollment within 31 days from the date your family member is first eligible. Contact Admin America (1-866-896-1273) to enroll or add a family member.

Terminating Enrollment
You may cancel coverage at any time. You may be able to re-enroll during an open enrollment period; however the plan is not open for enrollment every year.
