LAHP is a program that provides group health insurance for retirees whose group health insurance with their former employer does not meet their needs or is not permanently available after retirement.
If you leave employment with the WRS before reaching minimum retirement age, you may keep your money with the WRS or take a separation benefit. Learn about the key things to consider before taking a separation benefit.
Section 40.05 (4g), Wis. Stat., provides additional months of state contribution toward health insurance premiums for certain military service personnel who receive a military leave of absence or are eligible for reemployment under Wis. Stat. § 321.64.
Under certain circumstances, reciprocity may increase the retirement benefits payable to you if you worked for one or more participating public retirement systems.
