How does the plan work?
When there is a death in the family, the Family Indemnity Plan (FIP) will pay cash benefit to cover the funeral cost for you and up to five (5) eligible family members.
These may include a combination of the member’s spouse or significant other, any combination of up to two persons from the member’s parents or parents in-law (all of whom must be enrolled before age seventy-six), or the member’s children (including dependent children under legal guardianship of the member), who are not married and are age one (1) through twenty-five (25).
Children who are disabled are covered for the duration of their lives once they are enrolled before age twenty-six (26).
