Benefits Spotlight – Understanding Your Benefits Summary

Unsure of the benefits you are enrolled in or what it is costing you?

Check your Benefits Summary in your RCUH Employee Self-Service to see all of the employee benefits you are enrolled in, who is paying for it (employee or employer), and how much is being deducted from your paychecks!

To access your Benefits Summary: Log in to your RCUH Employee Self-Service > under Employee Information click on Employee Benefits – See Benefits Summary. Please note the Benefits Summary currently is only for regular-status benefits-eligible employees who are 50%-100% FTE.

Helpful Tip! You should check your Benefits Summary periodically to check if rates have changed, if your employment status affected any benefits (i.e., FTE reduction), etc. It is best to stay informed of your benefits, especially those that you pay for so there are no surprises in the future.

Benefits that you were previously enrolled in but are no longer actively enrolled in may still appear in your Benefits Summary. However, those benefits should say “Waived.”

The date will default to the 1st of the current pay period. If your benefits coverage begins at a later date, you can select a future date to see your benefits information. Change the date and click on "Refresh." Please note the sick and vacation leave balances will not change and will only show your balances as of today's date. 

You can toggle between the two icons to view your Benefit Plans either as tiles or as a list.

  • Employee Paid: How much is being deducted from your pay statement or how much you are contributing and frequency. If you see "PP," this mean per "Pay Period."
