When terminating employment, benefits remain active through the end of the month in which employment was terminated. For teachers and licensed employees that complete the full school year contract, coverage continues through August 31.
in the case of an employee’s death, coverage ends on the date of passing while any dependents remain covered through the end of that month. As a best practice, coverage end dates should always be verified with your employer's Human Resources department.
Terminated employees are typically eligible for COBRA, which allows them to optionally continue their THT plan for 18-36 months. If an employee retires and meets the retiree eligibility criteria, they may enroll for a THT retiree plan.
