How long can a former employee continue to pay for health care coverage under RIF benefits?
A. RIF health care coverage can continue indefinitely. However, since the former employee is responsible for the premium after the initial twelve -month period, coverage will be cancelled if the premium is not paid. If the former employee has dependent coverage and fails to pay the dependent premium during the initial twelve month period, the dependent coverage will be cancelled.
