SUBJECT:    Benefits Update

The 1997 Open Enrollment period will begin on Saturday, November 1, and
continue until Friday, November 21. Open Enrollment provides an
opportunity for faculty and staff to enroll, transfer or make changes in
coverage to University of California sponsored medical, dental and vision
plans, as well as the Dependent Care Assistance Program (DepCare) and the
Tax Savings on Insurance Premiums (TIP) program.

Individual Open Enrollment coverage statements and information booklets
have been sent to faculty and staff. The information should be reviewed
and the accompanying worksheet completed prior to making any changes
through Bencom at 1-800-888-8267. Further information regarding benefits
plans can be obtained at the Campus Benefits Information Day, which will be
held Tuesday, November 4, from 11 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. in the Price Center
Ballroom.

The Benefits web site home page has been upgraded with more comprehensive
information, improved graphics and easier access to Bencom and UC carrier
home pages. The Benefits web site can now serve as a focal point for
important Benefits updates and additional service enhancements. Questions
may be addressed to Jackie Edwards at her e-mail addresses
(joedwards@ucsd.edu) or X45634.
