Optional Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) Insurance

You have the choice to purchase Optional Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance coverage for yourself only or for yourself and your dependent family members in units of $20,000.

AD&D insurance pays a benefit if you or a covered family member die(s) as a result of an accident. Also, accident insurance may pay a benefit if you suffer the loss of the use of a limb or sensory perception (e.g., hearing, sight) as a result of an accident.

You are required to pay the full cost of your Optional AD&D insurance coverage via FlexDollars or payroll deduction.

Coverage

This benefit is available to you and your eligible spouse, as well as eligible dependent children.

Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance provides coverage 24 hours a day, 365 days a year against covered accidents in the course of business or pleasure. Coverage includes (but is not limited to) accidents on or off the job, in the home, while driving an automobile, traveling as a passenger by train, airplane, automobile or other public or private conveyance. The benefits provided under this plan are payable in addition to any other insurance which may be in effect at the time of accident. There are no geographical limits; it is worldwide accident protection.
