Faculty Welfare Committee
UNC Faculty Assembly
February 21, 1997

Change of Enrollment Schedule Dates for State Health Plans

WHEREAS, the current schedule that uses October 1 as the date by which a state employee must elect an alternate health plan corresponds neither with the fiscal year starting July 1 nor with the calendar year starting January 1; and

WHEREAS, this current schedule may result in economic hardship for state employees and their dependents,

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Faculty Assembly urge President Spangler to seek alignment to a calendar year ending December 31 for all State health plans, including their benefits and any deductibles.
