The City will pay sixty percent (60%) of the health insurance premiums (medical, dental, vision, Rx, life) under the City’s group health insurance plan for the retired employee and employee’s spouse at the time of retirement and so long as married to the retiree. However, this benefit cannot be combined with any employer subsidy under Nevada Law. 2.

Sick leave conversion benefits pursuant to Section 4 Article C, may be applied toward the remaining portion of the monthly health insurance premium so long as there is a balance of accumulated sick leave conversion funds. 5. Any employee who retires under PERS may continue group health insurance for that portion not covered under Paragraph 4 by paying in advance the monthly health insurance premium amount calculated for employee/dependent(s) to the City.
