Employees who are participating in a Health Trust health
insurance plan at the time of retirement will be eligible to continue coverage
for as long as their former employer is a member of the Health Trust, and as
long as premiums are paid.
Retirees who are under the age of 65, and who are not
eligible for Medicare, will be provided with the same benefits as active
employees of the employer. Retirees who are age 65 and over, and who are on
Medicare, will have Medicare as their primary coverage. The Health Trust will
then provide these Medicare retirees with a Medicare Advantage Part D
Prescription Plan.
Retirees who are age 65 and over, and who have Medicare Parts A& B, will be eligible to participate in the MMEHT Medicare Advantage / Part D Prescription plan, provided by Anthem.
For more information about the Medicare Advantage Plan, please contact the Health Trust Billing & Enrollment staff at 1-800-452-8786 ext. 2585 or by email at [email protected]. It is very important that you contact the Health Trust prior to your retirement date to avoid any penalties that could be caused by late enrollment.
