Cost
of the Dental Health Plan
You
and the University share the cost of your coverage under the
Dental Health Plan. The amount you pay each pay period for
your coverage is listed on the 2004-05
Contributions - Health, Dental, Life, and Accident Plans sheet
for either monthly or weekly costs. This information is
updated each year.
Your
share of the cost is the difference between the total cost
of the coverage and the amount that Boston University pays.
How
Dental Health Plan Contributions Are Paid
You pay for your portion of the contributions for your Dental
Health Plan coverage with tax-free dollars. Boston University
automatically reduces your pay by the amount of your payments
before federal income taxes, state income taxes and Social
Security taxes are deducted.
Automatic before-tax premium payments are allowed under the
provisions of Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code. These
are explained in more detail in the Flexible
Benefits section of this site.
