Optional Coverage: You may select optional levels of AD&D insurance in units of $10,000 up to $500,000 on your life, at a cost to you. The cost is $.24 per month for each $10,000 selected. (AD&D amounts over $150,000 cannot be more than 10 times your annual salary).

Dependent Coverage

Family AD&D coverage is also available at $.41 per month for each $10,000 selected (including employee coverage). The plan includes coverage for your spouse at 40 percent of your selected benefit and ten percent for each eligible child. If you have a spouse and no children, the spouse's benefit is increased to 50 percent or one half of your selected benefit. If you have children and no spouse, the benefit is 15 percent per eligible child.
