eligible dependents whether you enroll for individual or family
coverage in the Health Insurance Program or decline to
participate. Coverage under the UUP Benefit Trust Fund is not
automatic; you must first enroll yourself and your dependents.

covered benefits, and instructions on how to use your plans may be found at the Benefit Trust Fund. Briefly, the plans

Eligible members and dependents are entitled to vision
services once every 12 months (from the last month of benefits
received). Dependent children who are age 19 or older, but under
age 25, are eligible if they are full-time students.
Student verification will be required. When using a
network of participating providers, the benefit includes an eye
exam and one pair of glasses without co-payment (from a select
frame assortment) or plan-covered contact lenses with either a $25
or $45 co-payment (based on the brand of contacts selected). A list of participating providers is available from
Davis Vision.
If you choose to use a non-participating provider, you will be
eligible for a partial reimbursement towards the cost of your
exams, glasses, frames or contact lenses.
