medical plans offered to you as an employee. Should you leave or
retire these plans may be taken with you at the same premium.

occurrence benefit directly to you if internal cancer is diagnosed, and

PERSI
- PubLic
Employee Retirement System Of Idaho |
|
As an employee of
a public school in Idaho, who normally works 20 hours or more per week,
or a teacher who works half-time or more, you automatically become a
member of PERSI. Employee and employer contributions are
determined by PERSI. A member handbook is available from the Human
Resources Department. Visit the PERSI Web site at www.persi.state.id.us.
Workshops are
available on retirement and financial planning. |
|
| Cafeteria
Plan (optional) |
| The Mountain Home
School District Cafeteria Plan enables the employee to pay, with pre-tax
dollars, monthly employee costs for dependent Regency Blue Shield
medical/ vision and dental premiums, cancer and
income protection insurance.
Once you elect to enroll in the
plan and pay your cost of the insurance premiums, you cannot
change your election until the next anniversary of the plan --
September of each year. However, you can make a re-election if a
change in family status occurs -- marriage, divorce, death of a spouse
or child, birth or adoption of a child, termination or commencement of
employment of a spouse.
The designated cafeteria
deductions from wages are exempt from Social Security, Medicare,
Federal and state income taxes. However, your Social Security
retirement benefit might be somewhat reduced, since you and the District
may both be paying less in Social Security on your behalf. You
might decide which benefit is more important to you.
Our plan has made available to
employees the sheltering of income protection deductions. Cafeteria
regulations have resulted in payments being taxed if the premium is
sheltered.
Participation in the plan is
entirely voluntary. Contact the Human Resources Department for
details and forms |
