Termination Benefits Impact

 In case of termination, benefits will be affected as follows:

1. Health, dental, employee-paid life, and accidental death and dismemberment coverages will terminate at the end of the month of active employment.
    
2. Long-term disability, expanded life, and travel accident coverages cease on the last day of active employment.
    
3. Coverage under the health and/or dental plans may be continued in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act (COBRA) of 1986, for up to 18 months (29 months if currently disabled and receiving Social Security Disability (SSD) or deemed disabled by SSD any time during the first 60 days of COBRA coverage) by paying a monthly premium.  Contact MSU Human Resources Benefits for details.
    
4.  Employee-paid and expanded life coverages may be converted by contacting the company directly.
