For survivors of eligible employees and retirees

When an employee or retiree passes away, their spouse, state-registered domestic partner, or child who loses eligibility due to the death may enroll in or defer PEBB retiree insurance coverage as a survivor. 

What do I do? 

An enrolled dependent of a retiree who passed away, will need to notify the PEBB Program of your loved one's death. We will automatically move you to your own account. 

A survivor of an eligible employee or retiree who was not enrolled in PEBB retiree insurance coverage when they passed away must submit: 

  • Retiree Election Form (form A)
  • Any other required forms and documents based on your situation

Note: If you are a survivor of a retiree who deferred PEBB retiree insurance coverage, you must also provide proof of continuous enrollment in qualifying medical coverage from the most recent open enrollment for which you were not enrolled in a PEBB medical plan before the retiree's death.

By when?

The PEBB Program must receive your forms and documents within the following timelines. For eligible survivors of an: 

Employee

No later than 60 days after the date of your loved one's death or the date your PEBB, SEBB, or educational service district insurance coverage ends, whichever is later. 

Retiree

No later than 60 days after the date of your loved one's death. 

Elected or full-time appointed official

No later than 60 days after the date of your loved one's death or the date your PEBB insurance coverage ends, whichever is later. 

Exceptions to the 60-day timeline

If you select a Medicare Advantage plan, enrollment may not be retroactive. If the required forms are received after the date the PEBB retiree insurance coverage is to begin, you and your enrolled dependents will be enrolled in another medical plan during the gap months prior to when the Medicare Advantage plan begins.

For survivors of emergency service personnel

What do I do?

To enroll in PEBB retiree insurance coverage, you must submit: 

  • Retiree Election Form (form A) 
  • Any other required forms or documents based on your situation

By when?

The PEBB Program must receive your forms and documents no later than 180 days after the later of these events:

  • The death of your loved one.
  • The date on the letter from the Department of Retirement Systems (DRS) or the Board for Volunteer Firefighters and Reserve Officers that informs you that you are eligible.
  • The last day you are covered under any health plan (including COBRA coverage) through your loved one's employer.

Exception: If you select a Medicare Advantage plan, enrollment may not be retroactive. If the required forms are received after the date the PEBB retiree insurance coverage is to begin, you and your enrolled dependents will be enrolled in another medical plan during the gap months prior to when the Medicare Advantage plan begins.

Questions about enrolling or deferring?
