Living Benefits are the proceeds of your life insurance coverage under the Wisconsin Public Employers Group Life Insurance program that are paid to you while you are still living rather than to your beneficiaries after your death.
If you filed a grievance with the plan or benefit administrator and are dissatisfied with the final decision, you can request an administrative review from ETF.
If you are the owner of a WRS account from which a WRS death benefit or life insurance benefit would be payable upon your death, you may file a beneficiary designation.
Provided you did not close your WRS account by taking a separation benefit, your beneficiaries may be entitled to a benefit after your death. Understand how and what benefits are paid upon your death.
The Basic group life insurance plan became available to state employees in 1958 and to local government employees in 1960. Spouse & Dependent, Supplemental and Additional coverage is also available.
As part of our modernization journey, ETF is partnering with Benefitfocus to implement a best practices-based, fully integrated Insurance Administration System (IAS), known as My Insurance Benefits.
