The Wisconsin Public Employers Group Health Insurance Program offers employees of local government employers the opportunity to choose between two or more health insurance plans.
The program offers term life insurance coverage up to 5 times an employee's yearly pay for State of Wisconsin employees and local government employees whose employer offers the plan. Employees may also insure their spouses and dependent children.
ETF has published new recorded webinars for local employers focused on the Group Health Insurance Program and supplemental benefits to help answer employer questions.
ETF has updated the ICI Program materials for state employers and participants, focused on revision for the consolidation of coverage levels and the new provision regarding UW employees with position in more than one WRS employment category.
ICI is a voluntary “income replacement” benefit payable to an enrolled employee if they become disabled. This program is only
offered to employers already participating in the WRS.
This information is to help employers prepare for the 2023 reconciliation process. Annual reconciliation is a time-sensitive project. Your assistance is required to ensure that your employees’ WRS Annual Statements of Benefits are accurate and complete.
