I just got a little brochure from our Benefits Choice Center. They have four new kinds of insurance available to us, and we get paid enough to participate. These are almost enough to mitigate the fact that Bob Nardelli's a Bush Pioneer.
The last one is simply unbelievable. I think I shall sign up for it. I am definitely checking into the third one.
Long-term Care Insurance Provides coverage to help pay for services required by those who need long-term care, which is the type of care that might be necessary for someone with an ongoing illness or disability.
Who's eligible? Associates and spouses (or surviving spouses); same and opposite-sex Domestic Partners of eligible Associates; parents and parents-in-law; adult children and stepchildren over age 18; grandparents and grandparents-in-law.
MetLaw Comprehensive Legal Plan Provides you with legal advice and representation at an affordable price. You'll have access to a network of over 9000 experienced participating attorneys. All fully covered services are paid in full without any claim forms to complete when you use an in-network attorney. If you prefer, you can use an out-of-network attorney and be reimbursed based upon a set fee schedule. Provides coverage for legal services such as wills and estate planning documents, real estate matters, traffic offenses and identity theft.
Who's eliigible? Spouse; common-law spouse; child; stepchild; your domestic partner, and children of your domestic partner.
Auto and/or Home Insurance (purchase together or separately) You'll have access to a combination of valuable features for smarter, more complete coverage.
Who's eligible Home/Renters: You, your co-residing spouse/civil union partner (in Vermont), resident relatives of either such person by blood, marriage, adoption, including wards and foster children, any person under 21 in the care of any of the above, your domestic partner with common ownership listed in the declarations.
In the event of your death, we insure your spouse/civil union partner (VT) if either is a resident of the household at the time of death (this one's about a mile long and I don't feel like typing the whole thing out now)
Auto: You and, unless specifically excluded, your co-residing spouse/civil union partner (VT), your domestic partner with common ownership listed in the declarations, resident relatives by blood, marriage, adoption, including wards and foster children, and permissive users.
Veterinary Pet Insurance Health insurance for pets. A VPI policy covers thousands of medical problems and conditions related to accidental injuries, poisonings, and illness (including cancer).
Who's eligible Dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, reptiles, birds and "other pets."
We also have two new no-cost benefits: MetLife Division of Estate Planning for Special Kids--an educational resource that assists families with all aspects of planning for the futures for their children or other dependents with special needs, and The MetLife Survivor Assistance Program--a program to help associates and/or their beneficiaries deal with the many details around, and to provide resources for coping with, the death of a loved one.
