Insurance Benefits

The Commonwealth provides Long-Term Disability and Group Term Life Insurance for active ORP participants. These benefits provide survivor benefits and income protection for plan participants to supplement retirement account benefits. The premiums are paid by the Commonwealth as part of the Employer Matching Contribution.

Benefits are also provided for retirees, including those who retire due to disability.

 

Please note: As of March 10, 2008, the office of the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education
was renamed the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education. The name change will be integrated into
prior existing website content gradually over the next few months.
