Annual Enrollment: Learn More About Discounted UC Health Co-Pays

UC employees will continue to receive a 50 percent office visit co-payment discount when seeing University of Cincinnati physicians. Additionally, your co-insurance responsibility for the PPO and HDHP plans will be 5 percent rather than 10 percent when receiving covered services from University of Cincinnati physicians and UC Health hospitals.

UC Health hospitals are UC Medical Center, West Chester Hospital, and the Daniel Drake Center for Post-Acute Care – their affiliate institutes, centers of excellence, outpatient locations and laboratory services.

The co-pay reduction applies at the time of the visit. The co-insurance reduction will apply after the health plan’s deductible is met. Outpatient mental health services will not be reduced for co-payment or co-insurance and there is no co-payment reduction for emergency department services.  More information can be found
