Discover Your Eligibility for Benefits

At Fresno State, we're committed to supporting your well-being from day one. If you're working at least half-time in a position that extends beyond six months and one day, you're eligible for a comprehensive benefits package. View full eligibility details.

Are you a temporary faculty member? If you're teaching 6.0 units or more in the current or an upcoming semester, you're covered too! Learn more about benefits for part-time faculty

Even if you don’t meet the standard eligibility, there's good news: employees with a timebase of 0.75 or higher can still enroll in medical coverage—regardless of how long your appointment lasts.

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA)

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) sets strict rules on how your personal health information can be used and shared. These privacy protections apply to all employees and family members enrolled in a health, dental, vision, or Health Care Reimbursement Account (HCRA) plan.

HIPAA ensures the confidentiality of your health information and helps maintain your privacy when receiving care.

If you need the HR/Benefits team to assist you with a health care claim, you must first complete the Authorization to Use and/or Disclose Personal Health Plan Information form and submit it to HR.

If you have questions about HIPAA or need help with this form, please contact the Campus Privacy Contact / HR Benefits Manager at (559) 278-8237.
