RETIREMENT HEALTH SAVINGS. PLAN (RHSP) The Retirement Health Savings Plan (“RHSP”) is a City funded health benefit savings program that allows employees to accumulate assets to pay for medical premiums and allowable health expenses at retirement (or upon meeting eligibility criteria) on a tax-free basis. The RHSP has the following components: Eligibility: Employee must reach at least 10 years of City Service or more, retire or separate from City service and have reached a minimum of age 50. Under certain circumstances the age requirement may be waived if the employee qualifies as disabled from work under the PERS retirement plan or under Workers' Compensation. The City will contribute $50.00 per month per employee to the RHSP. The City’s contribution and related investment results will then be provided to the employee upon separation, or retirement, as long as the employee reaches 10 years of City service in a sworn police position. If an employee does not reach at least 10 years of City service or more, the City’s contribution and investment results shall return to the City to offset further contribution costs. The City will attempt to find a way in which employees may contribute to a health savings plan. If such a program is found, and complies with all Internal Revenue Service regulations, and any other applicable law, the City will make such a program available to Association as soon as it is feasible. Internal Revenue Service regulations governing RHSPs, as may be amended, are controlling over this Section, and may affect whether and how the City provides this program.
