Is there a CIC “Rule of 65” to obtain eligibility for AT&T retirement-related medical benefits?
A. Yes. The “Rule of 65” is part of the CIC provisions of the AT&T Postretirement Welfare Benefits Plan. Those provisions state that a management employee would meet the “CIC Rule of 65” if the sum of their age and Net Credited Service (as expressed in days) as of the employee’s termination date is at least 23,725days and the employee has at least five years of NCS as of the date their employment is terminated.
