Retiree medical plan costs
Retiree medical plan costs
The 2025 monthly costs for medical coverage below apply to retirees eligible for 100% of the UC/employer contribution toward the premium for each plan.
If you are subject to graduated eligibility and, therefore, not eligible for the maximum UC/employer contribution, your costs may be higher than those listed below. The Retiree Health Plan Premium Estimator for 2025 can help you understand what your share of your retiree medical premium might be. Please sign in to your UCRAYS account to see your actual costs.
Your plan cost appears as a deduction on your UCRP benefit direct deposit statement or check.
