Waiver of Premium Benefits and Pension Accrual While in Receipt of D&R Benefits
If your D&R application is approved:
- You will receive premium-free coverage for the HEB Manitoba Plans (Life Insurance, Healthcare, Dental, and D&R) that you were covered for prior to your Date of Disability, and
- Your credited service under the Healthcare Employees’ Pension Plan (HEPP) will automatically continue to accumulate while you are Totally Disabled if you contributed to the Pension Plan prior to your Date of Disability.
Note: Pension contributions must be deducted from earnings that you receive from your Employer during your sick LOA.
