Employee Medical Benefits

The District-paid medical benefit covers all full-time regular classified, academic, and MSC employees, members of the governing board, and eligible family members (children to age 26).
Eligibility is the first day of the month following the employee’s date of hire. Plans with a lower cost are available. Employees who opt for a lower cost plan will receive the difference as taxable income on their payroll checks. 

Butte College is part of the Butte Schools Self-funded JPA (BSSP) that funds the cost of medical claims with its own dollars.  Although providers and members see Anthem Blue Cross on the insurance, BSSP pays the full cost of all claims. 

Contact Human Resources immediately to report any change in dependent status. A new baby must be added within 31 days of birth. A spouse or domestic partner must be added within 31 days of marriage or the issuance of a Declaration of Domestic Partnership by the State of California, or a similar declaration issued by another state or a dissolution of marriage.
