Benefits Retiree Premiums

If you meet the eligibility requirements you are entitled to:

  • A $10,000 Life Insurance Policy (See premium list)

  • Continuation on the University's Health Insurance (See premium list)

Once you turn 65 your University health insurance coverage will supplement Medicare. However, you are required to have both Medicare Part A and Part B. The same plan provisions you currently have with the University's health insurance will continue with supplement coverage.

Monthly premiums may be paid by automatic bank draft. Please contact the Benefits Office for further information. See Current Monthly Premiums Table below:
