If you do not want to enroll in the State Group Health Insurance program, you may be eligible to opt-out and earn an incentive payment. Opting-out of health insurance is contingent upon meeting certain eligibility requirements, which may include providing proof of other minimum health care coverage for yourself and your dependents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For detailed information about the opt-out incentive, the eligibility requirements, and the consequences of opting-out, please see the Universities of Wisconsin and Wisconsin Department of Employee Trust Funds (ETF) web pages below. Please also contact 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Benefits Office (benefits@uwm.edu) if you have any questions about the opt-out incentive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
