Medical plans

Eligibility

All regular (non-temporary) full-time and part-time employees who work at least half time (.5 FTE) are eligible for coverage on the first of the month following date of hire. If hired on the first day of the month, benefits begin immediately. Coverage is available for spouses, domestic partners and dependent children of eligible employees.

Description

The college, at its sole discretion, may offer more than one plan. At this time there are two medical plans: Kaiser HMO and Kaiser Added Choice.

Contribution

Each year during the budgeting process, the college determines the amount it will contribute to the cost of employees' health insurance. Reed currently pays 100% of the cost of the Kaiser plan for employee-only coverage and 60% of the Kaiser cost for eligible dependents. Reed pays this same dollar amount towards the Kaiser Added Choice plan and employees pay the difference. Employees who have family coverage with the Kaiser plan will not be expected to contribute more than 9.5% of the full-time equivalent of their base salary/wage on the first date of the benefit plan year. Any changes in salary/wages during the year will not affect Reed's contribution until the following benefit plan year.

Employees pay their portion of the cost of their health insurance by pre-tax paycheck deductions. Cost for domestic partner coverage is deducted after tax.
