NGL Announces Low Minimum Participation Requirements for Employer Groups & Maine Update
NGL’s LTCi program for the worksite will continue to focus on small to mid-sized businesses, offering low minimum participation requirements.
Employer Group Minimum Participation Requirement
To receive the Employer Group rate class or the 5% Employer Group premium discount, a minimum requirement of 2 to 5 issued employees must be met, varying by state. The state will be determined based upon the address provided for the employer. The minimum requirements by state can be found in the EssentialLTC State Variation Listing.
Applications submitted and approved for coverage under an Employer Group where the minimum has not been met will be held for 30 days to allow additional time for the minimum to be met. If not met at the end of this period, policies approved and ready for issue will be issued without the Employer Group rate class or the 5% Employer Group premium discount.
Once the minimum number of issued employees has been met, eligible family members may also be issued under the Employer Group.
This update applies to all existing and future Employer Groups.
Also, it will now be required that an Application for Approval of Employer Group be submitted and approved prior to the submission of employee or family member applications under the Employer Group.
Maine — Employer/Association Groups No Longer Available
Effective immediately, due to statutory restrictions employer and association groups are no longer available in Maine.
