Medical Benefits
To qualify for medical insurance, you must be hired into an eligible full-time classification, which are as follows:
- full-time staff
- full-time administrative
- full-time faculty
- full-time visiting faculty
Two medical insurance plans are available with varied plan designs, coverage, and premiums. These are provided by Deseret Mutual Benefits Administrators (DMBA).
Open Enrollment
Changes to medical plans can only be made during the open enrollment period every October 1 to October 31. The choices you make in open enrollment will be for the next calendar year starting January 1. If you don’t make any changes, you will automatically keep your current plan.
Medical insurance can be waived, if desired. However, you will be required to enroll in Disability, Life (BGTL), and OAD&D.
