If I have breast implants from Dow Corning and a silicone gel breast implant from either Bristol, Baxter or 3M, can I still participate and get benefits?
A44. Yes, you can participate. However, the disease portion of your payment will be reduced by 50%. The reduction applies only if the Bristol, Baxter or 3M breast implant is a silicone gel breast implant. If you also had an approved rupture as a Current Claimant in the RSP, and you have another approved rupture under the Plan, your rupture payment will be reduced by 50%.
