Retiree Medical Insurance Plan
Recognizing the importance of providing quality health insurance to enhance Medicare, the Public Employees' Retirement System of Mississippi (PERS) sponsors the Retiree Medical Insurance Plan, which is underwritten and administered by Monumental Life Insurance Company of Cedar Rapids, IA, an AEGON company.
Designed to help pay costs not covered by Medicare, the plan covers many of the co-insurance amounts (such as the Part A deductible) and benefits such as foreign travel.
