The employee has the choice of three plans plus coverage for dental and vision care. During this five year period up to age 60 the District continues to provide the same health coverage as for active members including dental. The District pays the negotiated portion.
Employees pay any difference between coverage received and coverage chosen.
Dental can be purchased by the retiree. The District pays nothing. The MTA Health Trust Fund provides you with the same coverage as the District provided you up until age 67. This coverage could be altered only by a vote of the MTA Representative Council.
