[bs_col class=”col-sm-8″]Benefits Annual Open Enrollment is May 2 through June 3.  Employees will see some exciting changes to their health care benefits when open enrollment kicks off this month.

During the 2016 Plan Year, your copays and coinsurance amounts will be reduced when you visit or seek services from University Health Care providers.  Benefits will remain substantially the same if you choose another participating network provider.

Details will be provided in the open enrollment packets, which are being mailed to employees’ homes and should arrive by May 11.  All documents are now available on the benefits department’s website here.[/bs_col]

U nurse practitioners and medical assistants bring clinical expertise in individualized patient care, by assessing and treating work related injuries and other non-emergency medical conditions.

Employees who are injured at work should use the clinic as their first point of care unless the injury is life- or limb-threatening or occurs before or after RedMed clinic hours.
