2. Background check authorization

New hires will receive an email from the Recruiter. This email will be sent out within 48 hours after your job offer or 30 days out from your start date, whichever date is later.

This email will include a date this is required to be completed and a link to a form requesting some data points as well as an electronic signature. This link is a link to PreCheck. This allows UCHealth Yampa Valley Medical Center to run the required background check as part of our pre-employment process.

WITHOUT completing this step, a background check will NOT be initiated and may result in a deferral of your start date. Please check for this email and complete it ASAP. Also, check your Junk/Spam folders if you do not receive the email.

3. Employment eligibility – HR office
  • Click here to complete Section 1 of the I-9 Employment Eligibility Form. This online section must be completed by your first day of employment.
  • Enter Employer Code 15545.
  • Your employment date on the form will be your first day of paid employment, which is the Monday of orientation week.
  • State and federal regulations mandate that prospective employees produce documents that establish their identity and eligibility to work in the United States.
  • There is a step two to the I-9 process. Bring either 1) one “List A Document” OR 2) one “List B Document” AND one “List C Document”. You will need to bring these original documents (no copies or expired documents) to Human Resources on your start date. View the list of acceptable documents.
  • Failure to bring any of these documents and not providing the original document within 72 hours of your orientation date will lead to termination of employment.

Please call before going to HR to ensure you are arriving during business hours.

4. Required documents to send to your Recruiter

The documents listed below should be uploaded to the UCHealth pre-employment app that you can login to via the email you will receive from UCHealth prior to your start date after acceptance of the offer.  If your start date is more than 45 days out, this email will be sent at the 45 day mark.
