MetLife Dental Plan Summary

Costs

The University pays the entire cost of this program for full-time employees and their eligible family members enrolled in the program. Grandfathered part-time employees with work schedules of less than 75% time (and 50% or more) receive a pro-rated University contribution and pay the cost remaining through pre-tax payroll deductions. If you choose the "waive" option you will receive $100/year in UDollars instead of dental coverage.
