A big part of maintaining health is having a doctor you know and trust. You probably give a lot of thought to things like where to retire or your next investment. Shouldn’t you choose your health plan—and doctor—just as carefully? This open enrollment season, as CalPERS members you have a window of opportunity to change your health insurance.
In 2018-19, CalPERS Members have access to Dignity Health hospitals, services and affiliated doctors through the following CalPERS health plan options:
