Monday, July 31, marks the end of this year’s annual benefits enrollment period, and changes you make to your current plans will be effective Sept. 1. This year, there are major changes in the HMO Blue medical plan. For more details on this and other changes in medical plans, visit www.utsystem.edu/benefits/newsletter/.

Brett L. Morris, assistant vice president for human resources, recommends that all employees carefully read information sent by The University of Texas System. And when you’re ready to make selections, have your PIN number ready and log on to www.utsystem.edu/benefits/2006/ae/homepage.asp

If you don’t have your PIN number, please call the benefits office: (210) 567-2610 or send an e-mail to Benefits@uthscsa.edu.

Morris said he is proud of the employee response this year. “Although health coverage is a bit tricky this year for those wanting to continue their HMO Blue coverage, I’ve been impressed by the positive and informed manner in which the campus community has handled health enrollment during this annual enrollment period.

“It is a tribute to the quality of staff we have here at the Health Science Center that so many employees from all areas of the campus have stepped up and done such a great job of learning about plan changes, and then taking the necessary action. I think this was evident when such large numbers of employees and retirees attended the employee benefits fair presentations earlier this month.”
