Add Retiree Status (Termination)

Print

This job aid describes how to Add Retiree Status to an Employee after the Termination business process has been initiated and how to initiate a Change Benefits Event when the termination reason is Retirement.

Login with SSO to see this content.

Prerequisites

  • The Termination business process has been initiated with a Primary Reason of Voluntary > Retirement.
  • The Employee should have met with their member’s human resources office to confirm TAMUS retirement eligibility.

Important Information

  • The Effective Date of Retirement should be the day immediately following the Termination date in order for benefits to be available the following month.
  • Add Retiree Status can be a stand-alone business process from a terminated Worker’s related actions initiated by the HR Partner, Benefits Partner or Retiree Partner.
  • The Organization for Billing Other ID maintains the identification of the Supervisory Organization from which the employee retired in a format that will drive reporting requirements to legacy systems to assist in determining the organization that will pay the SGIP.
  • TAMUS continues to pay a portion of a former-employee’s State Group Insurance Program (SGIP) insurance premium after retirement. The Retiree Percent Local Other ID will maintain a percentage amount representing what portion of the SGIP is paid from local funds versus state funds and will drive reporting requirements to legacy systems.
  • The Retiree Retirement Program Other ID maintains the type of retirement (TRS, ORP, or ERS) and is used for billing insurance premiums.
