Insurance Plans

Foothills currently participates in Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) health, long-term disability (LTD) and life/accidental death and dismemberment (Life/AD&D) Insurance Plans. These plans can be found on the UUA website: https://www.uua.org/finance/compensation/health/eligibility and here https://www.uua.org/finance/compensation/health/premiums. We participate in the High Deductible PPO (employees can choose to participate in the Health Savings Account). 

Foothills pays 100% of the cost of this coverage for employees working 30 to 40 hours per week (or .75 to 1 Full Time Equivalent, or FTE). Employees working 15 to 29 hours per week (or .36 to .73 FTE) qualify for coverage through the UUA plans at their own expense. Family members may be added to health or life insurance at employee’s expense. An employee may also upgrade their plan to one of the higher coverage levels, in such case the employee is responsible for paying the difference between the Foothills’ covered plan and the plan they chose for themselves, as well as the full cost of all dependents.

Long term disability insurance is available only to the employee.

Any eligible employee may elect not to receive health insurance benefits, but such employee’s compensation will not be increased as a result.
