SUPPLEMENTARY HEALTH CARE PLAN. A probationary employee who has completed ninety (90) calendar days of continuous employment with the City since the last date the employee commenced employment as a probationary employee with the City, or a permanent employee, shall be a member of the Supplementary Health Care Plan unless the employee is covered by a similar plan or the employee has coverage by virtue of a spouse's membership in the Plan. Employees who are eligible for membership but do not become members of the Supplementary Health Care Plan as of their eligibility date, due to other plan membership, including another City Supplementary Health Care Plan, may only join the plan within thirty days of a Life Event. Employees who are members of the Supplementary Health Care Plan, and elect to subsequently opt out of the Plan due to membership in another Supplementary Health Care Plan, including another City Supplementary Health Care Plan, may do so only within thirty days of a Life Event. The member shall pay thirty percent (30%) of the premium by payroll deduction and the City shall pay seventy percent (70%) of the premium. Upon early retirement to a full or partial pension resulting from their service with the City, a member may continue participation in the City’s Supplementary Health Care Plan by paying the full premiums (City and employee share) on a monthly basis. Coverage for the member participating in the plan terminates: On the retiree’s 65th birthday, or On the 91st day the retiree ceases to be a resident of the province and is no longer eligible for Alberta Health Care, or On the date the retiree opts out of the Supplementary Health Care Plan due to a life event, whichever occurs first. Coverage for the dependent spouse participating in the plan terminates: On the their 65th birthday (if before retiree’s 65th birthday), or On the retiree’s 65th birthday, or On the 91st day the dependent spouse ceases to be a resident of the province and is no longer eligible for Alberta Health Care, or On the date the retiree opts out of the Supplementary Health Care Plan due to a life event, whichever occurs first.
