UC offers three supplemental insurance options — Accident, Critical Illness and Hospital Indemnity plans. These plans pay cash benefits directly to you when you or an enrolled dependent experiences a qualifying injury, critical illness, or hospital stay.
Supplemental health plans are not substitutes for medical or disability coverage, but they can provide an extra layer of financial protection against the unexpected.
Who’s eligible: Employees eligible for full, mid-level or core benefits
Who’s covered: You and your eligible family members, depending on the coverage you select

How to enroll
Newly-hired employees are given a 31-day period of initial eligibility (PIE) to enroll in accident, critical illness and/or hospital indemnity insurance. Your next opportunity to enroll will be during UC's annual Open Enrollment, unless you have a mid-year qualifying event.
