Dental Insurance Plan The 1981-82 budget provided for a dental

insurance program to be made available to active and retired state employees. CSUC employees are eligible for this program. To be eligible for dental insurance coverage, an employee must be appointed half-time or more for more than six months and be a member of the Public Employees' Retirement System.

The Chancellor's Office has completed a review of dental plan proposals and has selected two different type plans; the AEtna Life Insurance Company will offer an indemnity plan and Private Medical-Care, Inc. (PMI) will offer a prepaid group dental plan. The effective date of the insurance coverage will be Jan. 1 for all eligible employees who properly complete and sign the enrollment form on or before Nov. 25 and will continue through the 19 months of the contract period, ending July 31, 1983.

Under the AEtna plan, an individual is free to visit the dentist of his or her choice. Upon submission of claim forms to AEtna, the dentist or employee will be reimbursed for covered charges according to an approved schedule which has certain deductibles. Under the PMI plan, the employee selects a dentist in the employee's general geographic area from a list of those participating in the program who have contracted with PMI for the provision of specified services.

The dentists in the San Luis Obispo area who have contracted with PMI are: Drs. Leopold and Murphy, 878 Walnut Street, San Luis Obispo. Under this prepaid group plan, many procedures are fully covered, with some reasonable co-payment required on some ofthe less usual types of dental work (for example, there is a co-payment charge for crowns) .

DENTAL INSURANCE (Cont. from Page 1)

Neither AEtna nor PMI' s plan will require an employee contribution; the CSUC will fully pay the premiums for these plans for employees and dependents. Special provisions will be made for those now participating in an existing employee organization sponsored dental insurance plan.

The open enrollment period for employees to sign up for one of these two dental plans will be from Nov. 9 through 25 with an effective date of Jan. 1, 1982. Since this enrollment of all Cal Poly employees requires each employee to sign an enrollment form, the entire process is being decentralized. Questions regarding the benefits of the plans and/or questions regarding the enrollment procedures, should be directed to your Dean's/Division Head's secretary or other specified person within areas after Monday (Nov. 9).

An information packet regarding the dental program is currently being distributed to all employees on campus. This packet will explain the open enrollment procedures and the necessary steps to follow. As additional information is received regarding these dental insurance plans it will be provided.
