Health Plan Contributions (for Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Bargaining Unit employees only)
Health Plan Contributions
As a benefits-eligible employee, Syracuse University offers you the option of three health plans: SUBlue, SUOrange and SUPro. All three health plan options include medical benefits administered by Excellus BlueCross BlueShield (Excellus BCBS) and prescription drug benefits administered by Optum Rx. In general, the same services are covered under all three plans, but with a different deductible and copay/coinsurance structure.
Your Cost
As a member of SEIU, you are responsible for paying the monthly rates listed below.
The Schedule A contributions for medical coverage automatically apply, unless you qualify, apply and are approved for reduced Schedule B contributions. Certain employees represented by the SEIU collective bargaining agreement are automatically enrolled in the Schedule B medical contributions.
The monthly costs listed below are based on the 12-month calendar year. Actual deductions from each paycheck will vary depending upon your deduction cycle (e.g. weekly vs. semi-monthly, academic year vs. calendar year).
