For retirees under 65, health insurance rates depend on your plan, if you’re working, your original hire date and when you became eligible to retire.

Working retirees under 65 may only be eligible for discounted health insurance rates for one year. UK retail pharmacies is now the exclusive pharmacy for HMO members. For more information about the UK health, dental and vision insurance plans available to you, please contact our Benefits office.

If you're 65 or over, then you're eligible for our Medicare Advantage plan.
