INSURANCE BENEFITS
Retirees may continue with their Group Health Insurance
Coverage. You are required to visit the Health Insurance
Office within 30 days of your retirement to complete a new
enrollment form. The non-contributory basic life insurance
is reduced from $10,000 to $5000 and you may maintain your
supplemental coverage up to a maximum of $75,000. There are
no changes in the health benefits.
During the period that you are awaiting your first
annuity check you are required to make direct payments to
the Group Health Insurance office to maintain your insurance
coverage.
Note: Medicare becomes your primary insurance once you
are retired and have attained age 65. Your government
sponsored group health insurance plan, then becomes your
secondry insurance.
For more information call the Group Health Insurance
office at (340) 714-5000 or (340) 774-8588.
