Description

Other Post Employment Benefit Plans provide a non-retiremnent benefit. Benefits may include:

• Medical coverage
• Dental coverage
• Life insurance

Most Other Post Employment Beneit Plans relate to medical coverage for retired employees. Coverage may cease at a particular age or time period and may continue for life. Retirees may be required to contribute to be eligible for coverage. Even if a plan requires the retiree to pay 'the full premium', the plan is still subject to GASB 74/75 requirements as there is an implicit subsidy for such a plan as the value of the coverage for an older individual is greater than the average premium paid by all participants.
