Vision

Vision

The District-paid vision benefit covers all regular full-time BCPOA, Classified, Academic, and MSC employees, members of the governing board, and eligible family members (IRS dependent children to age 26).

Part time Classified employees may purchase vision at a pro-rated premium.  Eligibility is the first day of the month following the employee's date of hire. Upon retirement from the district, a retiree may self-pay to continue coverage under the district's policy providing there is no break in coverage.

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 and any dissolution.

Reimbursement will be made to the insured person up to the schedule of allowances shown for non-participating providers.
