IMPORTANT NOTES:
The State of Minnesota expects to continue the State Employee Group Insurance Program (SEGIP) indefinitely.
However, it reserves the right to change or discontinue all or any part of the insurance programs or benefits,
consistent with the state¡¯s rights and obligations under the law and collective bargaining agreements. The State
Employee Group Insurance Program is not liable for insurance plans that may become insolvent.
This document is a summary only. Refer to each plan¡¯s Summary of Benefits/Certificate of Coverage for a complete
description of all benefits and exclusions. You may view summaries and certificates on the SEGIP website
mmb/segip. If there is any difference between this document and any Summary of Benefits/Certificates of
Coverage, the Summary of Benefits/Certificate of Coverage will govern.
The benefits available through SEGIP are provided through a governmental plan which is not subject to ERISA.
Introduction to your benefits
The benefits available through the State Employee Group Insurance Program (SEGIP) are carefully negotiated by
representatives of employee unions and the State. If you are not represented by a union, your employer may provide
you with the same benefits that represented employees receive.
A broad base of programs has been developed to ensure the future health and security of you and/or your eligible
family members. Benefits-eligible employees are eligible for the following insurance benefits and flexible spending
accounts (FSAs):

Transit Expense Accounts (work-related parking and mass transit)
An employee¡¯s payroll compensation must be able to support the per pay period premium deduction for the benefits
the employee elected. If their payroll compensation does not support the required contribution toward a benefit, the
employee may not be eligible for that benefit. In some instances, an employee may be billed and pay for coverages on
a post-tax basis until their payroll compensation is sufficient to support their payroll deductions for these coverages.

Medical and Dental plan materials
Each health or dental plan administrator manages or directs claims for the State Employee Group Insurance Program
(SEGIP). Each works closely with Minnesota Management and Budget (MMB) to prepare summaries and descriptions
of the plans. Medical and dental provider networks can be found on the SEGIP website or the websites of each health
or dental plan administrator.
Summaries of Benefits and Certificates of Coverage
Summaries of Benefits and Certificates of Coverage are legal documents that describe the plan benefits. They include
more details about your plan and benefits than this document contains. All Summaries of Benefits and Certificates of
Coverage are available on the SEGIP website.
Labor contracts and plans
Most state employees are covered by a labor contract (also called a collective bargaining agreement) or plan. These
contracts and plans help define many of the key provisions of SEGIP. For more information about your benefits, check
the contract or plan that covers your position. Most contracts and plans are available on the MMB home page
