Contributions During a Leave of Absence
You are required to continue your contributions during any unpaid leave of absence (LOA) in order to maintain your coverage.
Your employer or the Plan Administration Office will advise you of the amount you are required to pay during a LOA.
Note: If you do not pay the required contributions, your coverage lapses and you will be required to provide satisfactory medical evidence of insurability before rejoining the Plan.
Contributions While Disabled
If you become disabled under the terms of the Plan, all of your contributions will be waived and payroll deductions will stop as soon as your earnings stop being paid by your employer. No further contributions are required and your coverage continues as long as you remain disabled and an employee of the Company under the terms of the Plan. |
