Open Enrollment Questions - A CARE Tool for Comparing Benefits

by Bill Threlfall
May 2013

Each year, CARE members are offered the opportunity to select medical benefit plans during the District's open enrollment period.  We have compiled a list of questions that may be helpful to members comparing available plans.  

The first and best source of answers to all questions concerning retirement medical benefits is the Chabot-Las Positas CCD Human Resources Department Benefits staff.  The plans available to a particular retiree depend on circumstances specific to that retiree; only the District Benefits Staff can provide accurate information.  For most plans, District Benefits Staff can provide a plan booklet that contains many answers.
