New tools help you choose and use benefits wisely

Available online and via mobile devices, the videos address some of the complexities of using health insurance and answer basic questions such as what’s the difference between an HMO and a PPO, how the plans work, what’s covered—and not covered—by the plans, etc. Take time to visit the UC Benefits website to view plan videos.
