The purpose of the Retiree Plan is to:

1. Subsidize eligible pre-65 retirees for the cost of health insurance premiums up to $750 per month
2. Offer medical, dental, vision and prescription benefits to both eligible pre-65 and post-65 retirees

Eligibility for individual participants shall be determined according to the provisions of the MOU between the various Unions and Employers participating in the Trust, along the rules described below. Coverage will become effective on the first day after active coverage ends due to retirement.

Eligible Retirees must complete a Retiree Plan Enrollment Form to enroll themselves and/or their eligible Surviving Spouse. Neither you nor your Surviving Spouse will be eligible for benefits until you have submitted a completed Enrollment Form to the Trust Administration Office and have been notified that your enrollment is complete, and your participation has been approved.

Note: Dependents will not be eligible for coverage.

The Retiree Plan will provide a source of funds to reimburse you for premiums which are not otherwise reimbursed. These expenses must be incurred while the Retiree Plan remains in effect, you are eligible, qualified, and participate in the Retiree Plan. A Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) is a recordkeeping reimbursement account the Trust will establish on your behalf. Each month, the Trust will credit up to $750 to your HRA to help cover the cost of eligible health care expenses for you.

The Trust has partnered with Via Benefits Insurance Services to help you make a funding decision and/or a healthcare election.
