Cost of Retiree Healthcare

As a retiree of HHH (a Participating Agency with NYSHIP), your policy type will change based on your coverage (Individual or Family) and the age of you and/or your dependents.

Once a covered individual is eligible for Medicare (first of the month prior to 65th birthday), Medicare becomes Primary and your coverage through the District becomes secondary (KNOWN AS MEDIGAP or SUPPLEMENTAL).  

NYSHIP makes this change automatically and your cost will decrease.  Policy Holders with HIP must apply for it and is based on where you live - contact the Benefits Department to enroll.

The portion you contribute towards Healthcare in retirement is based on your employment contract.  The District pays the remaining cost of your healthcare policy.
