The group health insurance program is an employer-sponsored program offering group health coverage to employees of state agencies, UW System, UW Hospital & Clinics Authority and participating local government employers.
The Wisconsin Public Employers Group Life Insurance Program is a benefit provided under the WRS and is available to employees of the State of Wisconsin and employees of participating Wisconsin local government employers.
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.
