After Notification
When the Trust Office is timely notified that one of the events listed under " When Coverage Ends" occurs, it will notify your covered dependent that he or she may elect continuation coverage within 60 days after the later of:
-
The date your covered dependent's coverage would otherwise end
-
The date notification is furnished by the Trust Office.
Elections of continuation coverage must be in writing. If a covered dependent does not elect continuation coverage within this 60-day period, coverage will end as it normally would under the plan. If a covered dependent elects continuation coverage within the 60-day period, coverage will be retroactive to the first day after the date coverage otherwise would have ended. Your covered dependents will need to pay the cost for any retroactive coverage.
