[Vision2020] University of Idaho Benefits Information

[Saundra Lund]

Hello Niki,

 

Thanks so much for the quick response - I appreciate it!  And, I love your
pink ribbon  J

 

Thanks, too, for the quick correction/clarification email that was sent to
faculty and staff regarding the errors in the printed annual enrollment
guide.

 

Just to be sure everyone is on the same page, are you aware that the same
information regarding the eligibility of stepchildren in the printed
materials is also on the UI Web site?

I understand it takes time to correct things, and I'm very appreciative of
the quick email clarification at what is undoubtedly a very busy time for
you.

 

 

Sincerely,

Saundra Lund

Moscow, ID

To University of Idaho Employees,

The University of Idaho is committed to providing excellence in employee
care and benefits. This week, the annual Open Enrollment brochures began
arriving in mailboxes, outlining the 2012 benefit options. I write to
provide a few updates and clarifications that, through oversight, may have
been unintentionally unclear or omitted from that brochure; for that, we
apologize. We recognize the benefits process can sometimes be
information-laden.

Clarification - Coverage for Stepchildren

	
The University's health plan does cover stepchildren, regardless of where
those individuals reside. While included in the plan, it was inadvertently
omitted from the communication brochure. We had expanded that coverage as of
Jan. 1,2011, as called for under national healthcare reform.


Footnote Correction - Deductible for family members (Pages 9 and 10)

	
Footnote says: ** When your family has satisfied the $3,000 deductible, you
pay coinsurance for covered services for all family members. If one family
member's covered services satisfy the $2,500 individual embedded
out-of-pocket maximum...

It should say: ** When your family has satisfied the $3,000 deductible, you
pay coinsurance for covered services for all family members. If one family
member's covered services satisfy the $3,100 individual embedded
out-of-pocket ....."


Correction - Wageworks website URL (Page 20)

	
The correct link for Wageworks is www.takecarewageworks.com.


As we do each year, we will have forums and information sessions for
employees statewide and we encourage you to bring any questions or concerns
directly to us through those opportunities or e-mail benefits at uidaho.edu or
call (208) 885-3697. Complete details are available online at:
www.uidaho.edu/humanresources/annualenrollment.


Sincerely,

Ron Smith
Vice President for Finance and Administration
