Benefit
Changes
To review the changes upcoming July 1, check the Update section. Information regarding Trust benefits can be
found
in benefit plans, with special pages
dedicated to the legal plan and the portability
feature of the supplemental life plan. The Trust provides dental, vision, basic life insurance and Working
Solutions at no cost to you.
Look to our Links
for a quick connection to those insurance companies with websites.
Hyatt, VSP, MetLife and EyeMed are all there. Preferred Choice (MetLife),
EyeMed and VSP are all network-based plans, and you may want
to review the networks when trying to decide whether to keep
or change your current plan.
You can review legal plan information and even enroll on the Hyatt website.
