These benefits are only in effect as long as the employee is eligible for such coverage and becomes and remains covered as provided in the group policy. When an employee covered by the TTR group health benefit plan returns to work, his health care coverage will be reinstated without the need for the employee to provide proof of insurability for a period of up to ninety (90) days after his return to employment. Thereafter, he must provide proof of insurability as required by the insurer to be reinstated. If an employee is laid off and subject to recall for more than thirty (30) days, he may extend his coverage up to thirty (30) days beyond the termination date of his health care coverage if he pays the premium cost for that coverage.
