Continuation of life insurance after retirement

An employee who is enrolled in the group life insurance program may continue the basic and supplemental life insurance coverage upon retirement or disability if the employee receives a retirement allowance from an eligible retirement system by applying for life insurance coverage and remitting timely payments to the board. Life insurance coverage must be continuous from when active group life insurance ends and retired employee life insurance coverage begins. Supplemental life insurance coverage can only be continued until age sixty-five.
