You have medical, dental and vision plans from which to choose coverage.  You may cover yourself and your eligible spouse or domestic partner and children.  You are eligible to enroll in coverage if you are appointed at least half-time and for more than six months.  If you enroll on a timely basis, coverage begins on the first of the month after your date of hire.  You also may enroll during any annual open enrollment period.
HEALTH CARE
Medical Benefits - You have a choice of several Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), depending on location, or Preferred Plan Provider (PPO) insurance plans through the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS)).  You and the CSU share the cost of coverage, with the CSU paying the greater portion of the monthly premium.  You may pay your portion of the cost on a pre-tax basis through the Tax Advantage Premium Plan (TAPP).

Dental Benefits – You may choose between two dental plans:  a traditional indemnity (fee-for-service) plan allowing you to see almost any dental provider, or a "dental HMO" plan offering a network of dentists from which to choose.  Currently, the CSU pays the full dental premium for you and your eligible dependents.

Vision Benefits – Vision coverage includes an annual eye exam, and glasses or contact lenses every other year.  Currently, the CSU pays the full vision premium for you and your eligible dependents.

Cobra Benefits – If you lose your eligibility for medical, dental, and vision benefits under specified circumstances (for example, you leave employment with the CSU), the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986 (COBRA) and the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989 (OBRA) allows you to continue to receive health care coverage at your expense.  You and your dependents can receive COBRA benefits for up to 18, 29 or 36 months, depending on the circumstances.

FLEXIBLE BENEFITS PLANS

FlexCash – If you waive the CSU medical and/or dental coverage because you have other non-CSU coverage, you can receive additional cash in your paycheck each month.  You will be taxed on this additional income.  Currently, you can receive $128 FlexCash per month if you waive medical coverage and $12 FlexCash per month if you waive dental coverage.

SURVIVOR PROTECTION BENEFITS

Life and Accidental, Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) Insurance – The CSU provides you with $10,000 of basic term life insurance coverage and $10,000 of basic accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance coverage.  The CSU pays the full cost of this coverage.  Coverage is automatic and effective on the first of the month after your date of hire.

ADDITIONAL CSU BENEFITS

CSU Fee Waiver Program – If you are a full-time employee, you are eligible each term to waive certain fees at a CSU campus for a maximum of two courses or six units, whichever is greater.  You may transfer your fee waiver benefit to your spouse, domestic partner, or dependent child (up to age 25); however, not all of the fees may be waived or reduced for your dependents.

RETIREMENT PLANS

CalPERS Retirement Plan – The California Public Employees Retirement System is a defined benefit retirement plan that provides lifetime benefits based on members' years of service, age, and final compensation.  Full-time employees appointed for at least six months, or part-time employees working at least half-time and appointed for at least one year, are automatically enrolled in the CalPERS Retirement Plan. 

Depending on hire and/or membership date, employees are placed in one of three retirement formulas.  Each formula determines the employee contribution rate, and the benefit factor and final compensation period used to calculate retirement allowance.
