What is a tax-deferred savings plan?
A tax-deferred savings plan allows employees to save for their own retirement with pre-tax contributions. This program is sometimes referred to as the “Cash Match” plan because UVA will match 50% of what an eligible employee contributes up to a ceiling of $40 per month. The cash match ceiling for Medical Center employees hired after September 1 of 2002 is 2% of creditable compensation.
