Other Insurance Plans and Programs

Information on all the insurance plans and programs below can be found at the following links or by hardcopy when a booklet is offered.

Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance (AD&D)

This insurance provides protection and financial help when accidents happen to you and/or your family.  Benefits coverage can range from accidental death, loss of limb, sight, speech or hearing and is described in full under the plans' evidence of coverage (EOC) booklet.

Auto/Home/Renter Insurance

The University offers insurance coverage for your home, apartment and car providing you meet the insurer's underwriting or approval requirements.  When you enroll, your monthly premium can be conveniently deducted from your paycheck.  Since coverage is individually underwritten, you are encouraged to get quotes from other automobile or homeowner/rental insurers to help you find the policy (and price) that best meets your needs.

Disability (Short-Term and Supplemental) Insurance Plan

UC offers both Short-Term Disability (non-work related) and Supplemental Disability insurance to help protect you against loss of income in the event of disabling injury or illness or for pregnancy and childbirth.

Legal Plan

Legal advice or assistance is available through enrollment in UC's prepaid legal insurance plan.  Purchasing this insurance coverage for you and your eligible family members will help you save costly fees when legal help is needed for preventative, domestic, consumer and defensive services

Life Insurance

The purpose of life insurance is to help you protect your family's financial security in the event of your death.  Depending on your benefits eligibility, UC automatically enrolls you in one of two minimal group term life insurance policies at no cost to you:  Basic Life Insurance if you have full benefits or Core Life Insurance if you have mid-level or Core benefits.  However if you want or need more group coverage for yourself and your eligible family and you are eligible for full or mid-level benefits, you can purchase additional UC group term life coverage called Supplemental Life Insurance and/or Dependent Life insurance plans.
