Full-time and part-time faculty and staff have the opportunity to purchase AD&D Insurance to reduce the financial hardships associated with death or serious injury resulting from an accident.
Coverage is available in $10,000 increments up to $500,000, and you have the option to purchase individual or family coverage. The amount you select is referred to as the Principal Sum.
If you elect Family Coverage, your spouse or domestic partner will be covered for 60% of your Principal Sum and each child will be covered for $10,000.
AD&D premiums are deducted from your pay on a pre-tax basis.
How to Calculate the Cost of AD&D Insurance: Divide the amount you elect by 10,000 and multiply the result by the applicable rate to determine your premium.
Example: Monthly employee electing $300,000 Individual Coverage → ($300,000 divided by 10,000 = 30 x .20 = $6.00 per month).
AD&D Premiums
(Per $10,000 unit)
Individual Coverage: $0.20 Monthly - $0.09 Bi-Weekly
Family Coverage: $0.35 Monthly - $0.16 Bi-Weekly
