TO ALL REGULAR EMPLOYEES
(INCLUDING FACULTY ON ONE-YEAR TEMPORARY APPOINTMENTS)

 

In an effort to somewhat reduce the spiralling increases in the cost of our
dental plan, we will be moving the administration of our dental plan, to
North American Life Assurance Company. Up to now, Great West Life has
administered the plan. Also, the College, being sensitive to employee
criticism of our Extended Health Benefits Plan with MSA, particularly ©

the eye glass option, has arranged for increased benefits under the new
plan, which will also be administered by North American Life. Specifically,
the new plan will allow:

- claims of $75 for eyeglasses/contact lens every two
years (with the standard EHB deductible and co-insurance)

- claims for oral contraceptives
- claims for the $4/day hospital co-insurance clause

The above changes will be effective April 1, 1980. It isa requirement of
Our arrangement with North American Life that all benefit claims be processed
through our Personnel Department (e.g. not be forwarded directly to them by
yourself, dentist or doctor) so kindly get the necessary forms through
Personnel beforehand. Note claimable EHB expenses Botualiy incurred prior
to April 1 must be claimed through the old carrier (MSA) providing the total
of the items claimed is sufficient to satisfy the 1980 $25 calendar year
deductible. Otherwise they may be carried forward and claimed through the
new carrier. Note: If the 1980 $25 deductible will already have been
satisfied by March 2lst with the old carrier, it will not be necessary to
re-satisfy it again with North American Life.
