An employee who terminates employment and is not receiving a monthly retirement benefit from one of the eligible retirement systems, and applies for continued coverage with the health, dental, vision, or prescription drug plan may continue such coverage for a maximum of eighteen months by remitting timely payments to the board. The employee desiring coverage shall notify the board within sixty days of the termination. Coverage will become effective on the first day of the month following the last day of coverage by the employing agency, if an application is submitted within sixty days. An individual who fails to timely notify the board is not eligible for coverage.
