Indiana University Health and IU Health Physicians are committed to providing you with access to quality tools and resources designed to help you pursue your retirement goals and financial well-being. As previously communicated, the IU Health Physicians Retirement Savings Plan will merge into the IU Health 401(k) Savings Plan at Empower in January 2022.

Empower is the second-largest retirement services provider in the nation 1, serving more than 12 million individuals and over 67,000 organizations 2. They’re singularly focused on retirement, with a mission of empowering people to save enough money today to enjoy a secure retirement.

Highlights of the move will include:
