The countdown to a new year is on. For State of Maryland employees, 2025 is a reset year for Wellness Incentives. UHR is here to explain what that means and how you can take advantage of these healthcare incentives. Who: Benefit-eligible employees enrolled in United Healthcare, CareFirst, or Kaiser Permanente healthcare coverage for 2025.

Coming Soon! Managing your University System of Maryland retirement plans will soon be simpler. Beginning December 17, 2024, you’ll have access to the Retirement@Work® online retirement plan portal. It brings all of your University System of Maryland supplemental retirement plan accounts together, regardless of investment provider– Fidelity or TIAA.

One of the biggest benefits you get from being a University of Maryland employee (or retiree) is Tuition Remission. This program allows employees, spouses, and dependents the opportunity to take classes at a University System of Maryland (USM) institution with waived tuition. 

Did you know that open enrollment is just around the corner? Mark your calendar for October 15, 2024, through November 8, 2024. As State of Maryland employee, it is important to understand the changes to our health care benefits before the open enrollment period starts.
