The first order of business was a benefits briefing by UCOP covering the changes to benefits (individual contributions and co-pays) that will be announced in the Open Enrollment period to begin on 29 October 2012. For most health plans there will be small increases in individual contributions and an average $5 increase in the co-pay for office visits and prescriptions. There will be significant increases in the individual contribution for the regular Health Net plan (not Health Net Blue & Gold) and for UCSC employees. A website with details will open on 22 October 2012.
