Retired Employees Health Care

Post-65 Retirees

Lafayette College post-65 retirees are able to choose among two options for retiree health insurance.

Post-65 retirees have the option to enroll in the same self-insured Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plan utilized by Lafayette's active employees through Capital Blue Cross. The College will pay, for the retiree and his or her eligible spouse, the same contribution toward the monthly premium as for active employees. The College will contribute $281.96 per month and the retiree, spouse, or surviving spouse will contribute the remaining $66.74 per month.

The College also offers post-65 retirees the opportunity to join Keystone "Senior Blue" HMO also through Capital Blue Cross. For those electing to join "Senior Blue", the College will pay 100% of the premium.
