The Maricopa Community Colleges (MCCCD) is pleased to offer its employees a comprehensive Flexible Benefit Program to all Benefit Eligible Employees.

How the Flexible Benefit Program Works
The Flex Benefit Program allows employees to choose from a variety of benefits. Each employee is allocated flex credits to spend on options that meet the employees’ needs. Each flex benefit has a cost. If the cost exceeds the flex credits provided, you pay the difference through biweekly payroll deductions. If the cost is less than your flex credits, the unused amount is returned to you as taxable income. Your flex credits are allocated on a monthly basis and determined by the tier of medical coverage purchased.

What is Insurance Fraud?

Insurance fraud is generally defined as the "intentional misrepresentation of material facts and circumstances to an insurance company to obtain payment that would not otherwise be made." It is fraudulent to fail to notify the Benefits office of a change in status or to misrepresent dependents in any manner. Disciplinary action will be taken, up to and including termination, should this occur.
