What happens If you Leave State Employment
If you leave State employment,
you can continue some of your Flexible Benefits Program
choices:
- You may be eligible to continue your medical, dental,
vision coverage and/or Health Care Spending Account for you and eligible
family members after your last day of employment.
- A conversion or portability feature may apply to your
employee life, spouse life, and child life insurance, and/or AD&D
coverage.
- You can be billed directly for legal coverage for the
rest of the plan year and then convert coverage to an individual policy..
- You can continue long-term care. Unum will bill you
directly.
- You can convert your Prepaid Dental option coverage
to an individual policy and be billed directly by
CIGNA Dental.
If you leave active State employment and then return
during the same plan year, your previous choices will
remain in effect unless you report a qualifying change
in status event.
When you go on leave without pay, contact your personnel/payroll
office, the State Health Benefit Plan, and the Flexible
Benefits Program. If you do not continue paying premiums
for coverage, your benefits will be cancelled.
Be sure to review each Plan Description for each option
and see your personnel/payroll office for more information.
