Group 10-Year Level Term Life Insurance Retiree

Many families are looking for long-term financial security they can depend on. This plan allows members and their spouses to lock in member exclusive rates and coverage amounts for 10 years. This makes it easy to fit within your busy lifestyle, as well as budget from year to year with the guarantee of no rate increases.

CSEA members who are under age 65, U.S residents, actively employed and working at least 20 hours per week can apply for coverage. Evidence of Insurability is required.

Retired CSEA members are still eligible for coverage provided they are under the age of 65, and remain a Retired CSEA member. Evidence of Insurability is required.

You must not be on active duty with the military.

Members are eligible for a minimum coverage amount of $100,000 and can increase in increments of $10,000 up to a maximum of the lesser of $1,000,000 or 10 times your yearly salary.

The aggregate amount of coverage for all combined CSEA plans is $1 million for the member and policy regulated amounts for their spouse.

Yes! You can apply to have your spouse covered for the same coverage, but it cannot exceed you, the member’s, coverage. They too can start at $100,000 and add on increments of $10,000 up to a maximum amount of the lesser of $1,000,000.

As a CSEA member, you’ll never have to worry about paying your premiums on time. That’s because your premiums are paid through the convenience of payroll deduction*. If you are retired, your premiums will be deducted from CalPERS.

*Payroll deduction is only available for SEIU, CSUEU, ACSS and Retirees.

After your application is approved, coverage will start the first day of the month following the first payment, if you are performing the normal activities on that date. If not, coverage starts the day you return to work.

Example: If your application is approved on May 5, and your first premium is deducted from your June 1 pay warrant, then coverage will start on June 1 if you are at work on that date.

When you truly retire, you can continue your life insurance if; you receive monthly California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) benefits from which premiums may be deducted; you continue your CSEA membership; and you send in an application requesting benefits to be continued into retirement before your retirement date and continue premium payments thereafter.

Providing your premium is paid, you remain a CSEA member and the Group Policy remains in effect your guaranteed premium term will be for a term of 10 Years.

After your guaranteed term ends you can continue your coverage to age 90 using the non-guaranteed rates. There are other options available. Your administrator will instruct you prior to your term ending regarding your choices.

At the end of your 10 year guaranteed term, if you are a CSEA member and under age 65 you have the option of:

• Applying for another 10 Year Level Term at your then current age. Full medical underwriting is required.
• Using the CSEA Group TermPlus Life’s Exchange Provision which will allow you to exchange a maximum of 30% (up to a maximum of $300,000) of your Level Coverage for the Group TermPlus coverage (G-30380-0) without medical evidence.

Yes. You may be eligible to apply for up to a million dollars of life insurance coverage. CSEA offers additional Group TermPLUS Life plans. Please note that the combined amounts of all Group TermPLUS Life coverage and all 10-Year Level Term Life coverage in effect for the member cannot exceed $1,000,000.
