A. Retiree Coverage. .The following plans are available to you for a lifetime as opposed to the COBRA plans which are available for only 18 (or 29) months:

1. Washington State Public Employees Benefit Board (PEBB). Offers medical only or medical and dental plans to employees who have been approved to draw a retirement benefit from The Washington State Department of Retirement. You may choose to elect coverage with the PEBB immediately upon retirement or, if you can be covered under a spouse’s plan or want to continue your District coverage under the COBRA laws, you may defer your coverage with the PEBB until a later date. You may also reject your lifetime benefit with the PEBB. Whatever your choice, you need to inform the PEBB within 60 days of your last date of active employment. Failure to communicate timely with the PEBB, will be deemed as a rejection and loss of your lifetime benefit. To obtain the retiree information packet and forms, please contact The Health Care Authority at (800) 200-1004.

2. WEA Select Retiree Dental Plan. A PPO Dental plan available to any retiring School District employee. The plan is administered by Washington Dental Service (WDS). For information, details or an enrollment packet, please contact either WDS at (800) 554-1907 or AON Consulting at (206) 467-4646
