Welcome

In response to the university’s critical challenge to ensure employees have access to affordable, quality healthcare and at the recommendation of the University’s Employee Benefits Committee (EBC), the university is undertaking a high-level review of our healthcare strategy. This April, President Boren established a healthcare review panel – the OU Contribution Strategy and Health Insurance Options Committee – made up of experienced faculty and staff to manage the comprehensive review. The Committee’s charge is to review and analyze our current healthcare plan designs, our funding strategies, our competitive position, and the possible effects that employee wellness programs and incentives might have on our current healthcare trends. This website has been established to help facilitate an open two way communication between the university community and the committee members.
