NOTICE

 

Enrollment in the SAMBA Group Term Life Insurance and Dependent Group Term Life Insurance Plans is no longer being offered as of July 1, 2009. Active employees who are under age 62 on July 1, 2009 may retain this coverage until they reach age 62, even if they retire in the interim.


If you were enrolled in the Supplemental Group Term Life Insurance Plan for yourself or your spouse, this coverage was converted to our new SAMBA Term Life Insurance Plan.

CLICK HERE to access information about the new SAMBA Term Life Insurance Plan.

If you are under age 62 and therefore are still enrolled in the Group Term Life/Dependent Group Term Life Insurance plans, you were notified that you may experience an increase in premium.
Please refer to the charts below.

Contact SAMBA if you have questions or need assistance by calling (800) 638-6589 or by email at Insurance@sambaplans.com.
