Dental Plan Costs

If you are eligible for opt-out credit dollars, you can receive a $5 credit per month from the University in your paycheck if you have one year of service and choose “waive coverage” on your enrollment form.

After one year of service, the University pays for Option 1. The University will pay an amount equal to the cost of Option 1 toward your dental coverage if you elect Option 2 or 3. You pay any difference in cost.

You can enroll in Option 1, 2, or 3 during your first year of service, but you must pay the full cost. The University contribution begins automatically on your first anniversary. The University pays an amount equal to the cost of Option 1 toward your dental coverage. You pay any difference in cost.
