Answers about the plan, including eligibility, options, enrollment, customer service and more.
How much will my coverage cost?
What are the benefit amounts?

What is Critical Illness Insurance?
Critical Illness insurance will pay you a lump sum benefit amount if you are diagnosed with any of the conditions — or require any of the procedures — noted below:
How do I pay my premium?
Premiums are conveniently deducted from your paycheck.
Does coverage end after benefits are paid?
If the date of diagnosis is separated by at least six months for the same critical illness and not caused by a critical illness for which benefits have been paid, the carrier will pay the additional occurrence benefit. If the date of diagnosis is separated by at least 12 months (12 months treatment free from cancer) for a different critical illness, we will pay the re-occurrence benefit. Cancer that has spread (metastasized) even though there is a new tumor will not be considered an additional occurrence unless you have been treatment-free for 12 months.
Will my coverage decrease as I get older?
Your coverage will not decrease as you age.
Can I cover my children too?
Children are covered at 50% the Employee’s benefit amount at no additional cost.
