REMINDER: Sign Up for Castlight Online Tool by April 30 for Chance to Win Year of Premium-Free Health Care

Castlight is available to UC employees, spouses/domestic partners and dependents age 18 and older enrolled in a UC Anthem medical plan.
Those who register for Castlight will be eligible to win a prize of premium free health care for 12 months.
