April is Financial Literacy Month
|
|
|
|
MyMoney.gov, a product
of the congressionally chartered Federal Financial Literacy and Education Commission, recommends keeping these five principles in mind as you make day-to-day decisions and plan your financial goals.
|
|
|
|
EARN – Make the most of what you earn by understanding your pay and benefits.
SAVE & INVEST - It’s never too early to start saving for future goals such as a house or retirement, even by saving small amounts.
PROTECT – Taking precautions about your financial situation, accumulate emergency savings, and have the right insurance.
SPEND – Be sure you are getting a good value, especially with big purchases, by shopping around and comparing prices and products.
BORROW – Borrowing money can enable some essential purchases and builds credit, but interest costs can be expenses. And, if you borrow too much, you will have a large debt to be repaid.

Do You Qualify for Additional Covered Teeth Cleanings?
Teeth cleanings do not only benefit your oral health but our overall health as well. UNI’s dental plan provides all members two teeth cleanings per year which are 100% covered. Our dental plan offers Enhanced
Benefits, a free benefit which provides additional covered teeth cleanings for those who have certain health conditions. For example, an individual with diabetes can receive two additional teeth cleanings per
year, that are also 100% covered. Anyone covered on your dental plan can take advantage of this program. Review the Enhanced Dental Benefits handout for more information.
