Retiree Health

The Retiree Health Plan provides benefit credits eligible retirees can use to help manage healthcare costs in retirement. Your benefit credits are calculated based on your years of service and are made available to you annually throughout your retirement. You may use these credits to offset the cost of retiree health coverage offered through Segal, or, alternatively, use them as a Medical Expense Reimbursement Account (MERA) to be reimbursed for qualified medical expenses.

You’re eligible for the Retiree Health Plan if you meet both of the following criteria:

  • You retire from active service from Segal on or after your 55th birthday and are eligible to receive either an early retirement pension or a normal retirement pension from the Segal pension plan; and
  • You were eligible to participate in a Segal health plan immediately prior to retirement.

Only your spouse or spousal equivalent and dependent child(ren) covered at the time of your retirement are eligible under the Retiree Health Plan.

More information about retiree health coverage can be found in the U.S. Employee Benefits Guide, in the Health and Dental Coverage after Retirement section.
