Life Insurance
District-benefit-eligible employees are provided with a $50,000 life insurance plan during their active employment.
Beneficiary information is captured during the open enrollment process. If you would like to update your beneficiary information mid-year, please use the attached form and send the original form to Risk Management. Once the form is completed and received in Risk Management, it will supersede all previous beneficiary forms.
NOTE: You have the right to convert the group policy to a personal policy within 31 days of either your termination or retirement from PYLUSD. If you choose to convert this policy, please provide the attached Request for Group Life Conversion form to Risk Management IMMEDIATELY. Once Risk completes section 1, the employee must complete section 2 and then mail, fax, or email the form to the contact information on the top right corner of the form.
This form is not an application to convert the policy, it is to enable Anthem to provide you with conversion rates. NOTE! The application Anthem provides you and the 1st premium payment MUST be received by the insurance company within 31 days of termination.
Benefits after age 65: You will still have benefits after you turn 65 though they will reduce as mentioned in the attached certificate.
An accelerated death benefit is available if a physician has determined that life expectancy is less than 12 months, if the employee is under the age of 60. Please contact Risk Management for more information.

For retirement account beneficiaries, please contact CalSTRS or CalPERS directly.
