There are excellent resources available through informational materials and by contacting the Hancock Co. directly. Hancock representatives will be at all three UW Benefits Fairs. Most state employee insurance enrollment is administered by the HCA or the employer. However the legislation enabling the offering of LTC provided that insurance agents should have access to sell and be compensated for selling the LTC product to state employees.
Employees can use one of the listed agents if they wish, or enroll directly with Hancock.
In addition to the LTC presentation at the HUB Benefits Fair on Oct. 29, additional presentations are being coordinated at other locations for the first week of November. Times and locations will be announced later this week. The TIAA-CREF LTC product is also available on an individual basis to higher education employees, their dependents, and to UW retirees, but does require a health screening.
