Medicare Eligibility. This provision applies to Members who are entitled to Part A and/or Part B of Medicare. A Member will not be terminated as a result of reaching the age of sixty-five (65) or becoming eligible for Medicare. Benefits not covered by Medicare will be provided as described in the Agreement. Benefits covered by Medicare are subject to the provisions in this section.
Medicare Eligibility. The person receiving continuation coverage becomes eligible for Medicare.
Medicare Eligibility. When active employees and/or their spouses turn 65 years of age, they must choose between Medicare and their current health care coverage as their primary health insurance.
Medicare Eligibility. For purposes of this Agreement, an individual is considered eligible for Medicare when he becomes eligible for Medicare Part A due to age; eligibility based upon disability or end stage renal disease will not be considered. An individual need not be enrolled in or covered by Medicare to be considered “eligible.”
Medicare Eligibility. Commencing on their 65th birthday, unit members who retire from the College (and covered spouses) are required to utilize Medicare Part B in conjunction with a Medicare Advantage Plan that provides a level of benefit as close as possible to the College’s plan for which they would be eligible if the retiree and/or spouse was not yet 65. Except as provided in Article 13.1(b)(4), if a member (and/or covered spouse) moves out of the coverage area of the Medicare Advantage Plan provided under this Section, the College will provide an out-of-area Medicare Advantage Plan which provides benefits that are comparable (meaning as close as possible) on an overall basis to the coverage that would otherwise be provided under this Article. In the event Medicare Advantage Plans are not available, the college will provide a replacement plan that provides a level of benefit that is comparable (meaning as close as possible) on an overall basis to the coverage that would otherwise be provided under this article.
Medicare Eligibility. When an eligible teacher and or spouse reaches Medicare eligibility they will be required to participate in Medicare Parts A & B. Those choosing not to participate in Medicare Parts A & B will not receive the School District health insurance contributions.
Medicare Eligibility. The employee shall be responsible for notifying the City when the employee and/or spouse become eligible for Medicare.
Medicare Eligibility. When the retiree reaches the age where he/she is eligible for Medicare, the District will pay the equivalent percentage, as based on years of service, of the premium for Supplemental Medicare Insurance [Medi-Gap] coverage. This benefit applies to the single or two person plans only.
Medicare Eligibility. Coverage under a medical insurance plan made available through the Employer will continue until the retiree, or eligible spouse, becomes eligible for Medicare. The Employer may then discontinue health insurance and pay the Medicare premium plus the cost of any premiums to supplement the Medicare coverage so that the required level of coverage is not reduced.
Medicare Eligibility. PROVIDER represents and warrants that PROVIDER has, and during the term of this Agreement shall continue to maintain, a valid agreement with CMS to render services under the Medicare program. PROVIDER shall notify Payor within five (5) business days of any lapse, cancellation, or material change in status or the initiation of any proceeding that could result in such cancellation or material change.
