Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance provides an extra layer of financial protection if you or a covered family member experiences a serious accident. Coverage is available to all benefit-eligible faculty and staff, with the option to include eligible family members. Eligible retirees who enrolled in the plan prior to retirement may also continue coverage, with benefit amounts reducing based on age.
