You Die
If you die while covered under the county's benefit plans, your family and beneficiaries will receive a letter from Benefits and Retirement Operations with instructions on how to:
-
continue county health care coverage through COBRA and other options; and
-
submit claims for reimbursement under a flexible spending account (FSA), if you were enrolled.
Benefits and Retirement Operations will also help your family and beneficiaries:
-
complete a claim for any accidental death insurance or disability survivor benefit they're entitled to receive;
-
contact:
-
Aetna Life Insurance to file a life insurance claim;
-
the King County Employees Deferred Compensation Plan coordinator; and
-
Washington State Department of Retirement Systems (DRS);
-
receive your final paycheck; and
-
contact the Making Life Easier Program for bereavement counseling, if they're interested.
