Come to the Benefits Fair

Make sure to attend this year's OPT Benefits Fair on Friday, October 25, from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at McClellan Hall, second floor, Jefferson Medical College.

For all the answers to your benefits questions at one time and in one place, the Benefits Fair's the place to be. You'll receive information on OPT and be entered in prize drawings. And OPT kits, which will no longer be distributed by timekeepers, will be available at the fair for those who need them.

You can also talk with representatives from Jefferson's healthcare insurers: Independence Blue Cross, U.S. Healthcare (HMO PA/NJ), Keystone Health Plan East; representatives from local banks: Constitution, PNC, and the Educational Credit Union; tax-sheltered annuity experts from TIAA/CREF, Fidelity Investments, Vanguard and the Copeland companies, and representatives from Jefferson Advantage, our expanded employee assistance program. Also on hand will be representatives from the Carebridge organization to discuss Jefferson's program of family care services.

Participating University departments are environmental health and safety/security, the Commuter Services Office, the Activities Office, the blood bank, Computer Prescriptions and University Health Services.

You can call the benefits office at 3-7858 with your questions between 7:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. Between 5 p.m. and 7:30 a.m., just leave your message on voicemail at 3-2959 so a benefits staff member can return your call the following workday.
