If you elect to have double coverage for a spouse/domestic partner or eligible dependent, you will be required to have the premium associated with the double coverage deducted out of your payroll check each month.
Retirement Exception: The College will waive the double coverage premiums when an employee is adding a spouse/domestic partner and/or eligible dependents during open enrollment prior to the employee's anticipated retirement date for that plan year.
Other College Paid Insurances
Approved benefit claims begin after 90-day elimination period. Maximum benefit is 66 2/3 of monthly salary; benefit may be adjusted based on other income received by retirement benefits.
Public Employees Retirement Plan (PERS)
On behalf of the employee, MHCC contributes 6% of their gross salary into an Individual Account Program (IAP) with PERS. At the time of retirement, based on one of the following programs, a monthly pension benefit is calculated. Please refer the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) website for detailed information on retirement benefits: http://oregon.gov/PERS/
