Under certain conditions insurance coverage may be extended beyond the time eligibility normally ceases. If an otherwise eligible child becomes ineligible due to any of these same reasons, or due to age requirements, that child is also eligible to continue coverage. Please contact the Office of Human Resources for additional information. 5.3.1.2 Life Insurance Coverage effective date is the same as health insurance. Coverage is reduced after the employee's 65th, 70th, and 75th birthdays.
Coverage begins six months after employment.
Medical, life, and disability insurance for the employee will continue to be paid by the University if not on active service due to sickness or injury. Life insurance is continued by a waiver of premium with the physician's statement certifying the disability. Premiums paid by faculty for dependent coverage or other optional insurance will triple in May to pay for the summer premiums. Premiums must be paid in advance. The employee should obtain an identification card by the first day of employment or at the time the employee completes the required paperwork in the Office of Human Resources.
