To be added to your UVA Dental Plan, children must be your biological, step, adopted, or foster child, or any child declared a dependent on your federal tax return for whom you are the legal guardian with permanent custody.  You must be the legal guardian with permanent custody. Children are eligible through December 31 of the year they turn 26. Starting January 1, 2019, children are eligible to the end of the birth month in which they turn 26 rather than the birth year.

If children are incapable of self-support, due to mental or physical disability, they can remain on your dental plan beyond age 26 as long as the following requirements are met:

• Required documentation is approved in advance by the benefits claims administrator before the dependent's 26th birthday.
• They are unmarried.
• They live with you 100% of the time.
• They are declared a dependent on your federal tax return.

You receive UVA Basic Dental Plan coverage at no cost. Dependents are not automatically enrolled. This must be done as a new hire, with a qualifying mid-year life event, or during the annual enrollment period in October.

The following monthly premiums are for the Basic Dental Plan:

Postdoc: $0.00

Postdoc + Child/Children: $18.75

Postdoc + Spouse: $20.75

Family: $42.75
