Public Employees Health Program (PEHP) is a non-profit, self-funded trust managed by the Utah State
Retirement Board. PEHP began in 1961 as the Group Insurance Division of the Utah State Department of Finance.
Benefits were administered by a commercial insurer. In 1976, Group Insurance was made a division of the Utah Retirement Systems. One year later, in 1977, the administration of the health insurance program was brought in-house and the Public Employees Health Program was established.
The URS/PEHP office still operates normal business hours from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday |
