Overview

Supplemental health insurance provides cash payments in the event of a significant unexpected medical expense. You are responsible for the premiums that are paid through pre-tax payroll deductions.

You can choose from four different supplemental health insurance policies. For cost and benefit details and to enroll, visit the Aptia 365 (formerly Mercer Marketplace 365+) website. Learn how to access the site.

Keep in mind

These policies don’t provide the minimum level of medical coverage needed to meet federal health care law requirements. Rather, they’re intended to supplement the coverage provided by your medical plan.
