This coverage is not available to Retirees and their Eligible Spouses who begin Retiree Health Plan coverage on or after January 1, 2016.

This Medicare Supplement Plan pays the annual Medicare deductibles, and the 20% not covered by Medicare, up to an annual Plan reimbursement of $2,500. The $2,500 maximum applies separately to each Participant and the Participant's eligible spouse.
