Retiree Health Care Insurance. The Township will provide retiree health care coverage for a member at the time of retirement under the following terms and conditions. For purposes of determining retiree health insurance vesting, (i.e., at least twenty-five years of service with the Township) paid on call time with Pittsfield Charter Township shall be included. To be eligible for retiree health care coverage for a member and his/her spouse at the time of retirement (provided he/she remains the spouse) the employee must have 25 or more years of service with the Township, 10 or more of which are after age 45, and be employed by Pittsfield Township prior to December 31, 2007. Retiree health care coverage shall mirror that of existing active employee health care benefits (e.g., retiree benefits change when active employee benefits change). When the eligible retiree or his/her spouse at the time of retirement reaches age sixty-five (65) (or the Medicare eligibility age, if higher), the retiree or spouse must apply for Medicare Coverage (Parts A and B) and pay the applicable premium(s). The retiree or spouse will then be enrolled in a supplemental plan with the Township. The Employer will pay the premium to provide said Township supplemental coverage for the eligible retiree and spouse. A spouse who survives a retired employee is entitled to receive the same benefits as herein provided. For employees hired after December 31, 2007, the Township shall only pay the cost of single subscriber coverage, up to $600 per month. The parties expressly acknowledge that it has been, and will continue to be, the intent of the parties that all active employees, upon retirement, and all current retirees (including covered spouses and dependents) will receive the retirement health benefits (which includes the level of coverage and respective employer-employee/retiree premium share, if any) provided for in the collective bargaining agreement in effect on the date of retirement of the active employee or current retiree. In the event active employees negotiate to eliminate active employee health insurance benefits, retirees will still be provided retiree health insurance at the level in place when active employee health insurance benefits were eliminated. It is the intent of the parties, as expressed herein, that the vested health benefit shall continue after the expiration of the collective bargaining agreement
