February 15th is the last day to enroll in peace of mind. Time is running out to enroll in health insurance on the Marketplace. You must sign up by February 15 to have coverage for 2015 and the peace of mind that comes with it. Even if you were re-enrolled in the plan you had last year, you can still change your plan. And that’s a good idea. Because UPMC Health Plan has some of the lowest cost Marketplace plans in western Pennsylvania* – and they all give you full access to UPMC doctors and hospitals. So you can pay less, get the care you want, and avoid a potential tax penalty for not having health coverage. Don’t wait. Enroll today. Open enrollment ends February 15th. Find the plan that’s best for you today at UPMCHealthPlan.com, or call 1-855-417-8762.
*Based on plans available in Allegheny, Beaver, Butler, Erie, Washington and Westmoreland counties.

LEGACY OF EXCELLENCE
In addition to income from the Annual Fund, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra is dependent on a robust endowment to assure its long-term financial stability. Gifts from Legacy of Excellence programs are directed to the endowment to provide for the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra’s future. The Steinberg Society honors donors who have advised the Pittsburgh Symphony in writing that they have made a provision for the orchestra in their will. Members of the Sid Kaplan Tribute program have made a gift to the endowment of $10,000.00 or more to commemorate a particular person or event. Endowed naming opportunities for guest artists, musicians’ chairs, concert series, educational programs or designated spaces allow donors to specify a name or tribute for 10 years, 20 years or in perpetuity.
