The Laboratory contributes a percentage of the maximum employer contribution toward your monthly premiums for medical and dental coverage.

Note: Retirees who were hired in a career position with UC before January 1, 1990, and who applied for LANS retiree health and welfare benefits within 120 days of termination from LANS receive 100% of the LANS maximum contribution. The Rule of 75 does not apply
