Save on Expenses
Duke's health and dependent care reimbursement accounts help you manage expenses. Enroll or re-enroll in the accounts from Oct. 14 to Oct. 25.
Insurance premiums will increase in line with industry peers and large employers across the nation due to inflation and rising prices for specialty medications, as increased utilization continue to drive health plan premium increases nationally.
In the past fiscal year, Duke paid $391.6 million for health care needs of roughly 77,000 covered lives, up $63.9 million from the previous year.
“Ensuring the well-being of our Duke family remains a top priority,” said Antwan Lofton, Vice President for Duke Human Resources. “While we are adjusting our health insurance premiums to align with industry trends and rising costs, we remain dedicated to providing affordable deductibles and unparalleled access to the world-class Duke University Health System caregivers. Our commitment to supporting our staff, faculty, and their loved ones, is unwavering, and we continue to strive for excellence in the value and quality of our medical, dental, and vision plans.”
As a reminder, if you wish to participate in the Health Care and/or Dependent Care Reimbursement Account, you must enroll (or re-enroll).
