UC has entered into an agreement with UnitedHealthcare to o�er UC retirees in California a new Medicare Advantage Preferred Provider Organization (MA PPO) plan beginning Jan. 1, 2020. The new plan will replace the Health Net Seniority Plus Medicare Advantage HMO beginning in the next plan year (2020). UC’s other Medi-care plans, including the UC Medicare PPO and UC High Option Supplement to Medicare plans administered by Anthem and Kaiser’s Senior Advantage plan, will continue to be available in 2020. You do not need to take any action at this time.
UC is working closely with UnitedHealthcare to �nalize details of the plan o�ering so UC retirees are able to make informed decisions about their bene�ts for next year. Additional information and opportunities to ask questions will be available before Open Enrollment (Oct. 31 – Nov. 26, 2019).

The already discount-ed faculty-/alumni-/sta�-/emeriti-/retirees-priced tickets are reduced even more by purchasing a FAStER Pass.
