Long-Term Care
Long-term care insurance can help ease the financial burdens associated with care when the ability to perform the basic activities of daily living (ADLs) is lost. ADLs include activities such as walking, moving unassisted, dressing, bathing, eating, toileting. Long-term care may be needed to recover from surgery or to cope with the effects of illness.
Employees may enroll or cancel at any time throughout the year.
Enrollment eligibility:
- All PEBB employees who are 18-84 years old.
- Employee's spouse/domestic partner.
- Parents and grandparents of an employee or of the employee’s spouse or domestic partner.
- Adult siblings or adult children of the employee or the employee’s spouse or domestic partner.
Enrollment forms for Long Term Care Insurance are available online.
Important: Newly hired employees are eligible for benefit amounts up to $4,000 and a facility benefit duration of 3 or 6 years. Interested employees must enroll within 30 days of initial eligibility. Employees consider the guaranteed issue amount if they have a family history that may prevent gaining coverage.
