Decide what plan you want to select and whether you want to cover any eligible dependents. Step 2. Calculate your rates by using the following formula: Prior to 1988 Fixed Premium You pay $15 for Single or Two Party coverage or $45 for Family coverage. The City pays the remainder. 1988 1993 Fixed Contribution See your selection form for the amount the City will contribute for benefits. Subtract that number from the cost of the plan. As a Sworn Police Officer or Sergeant, retired on or after July 1, 1985 and prior to February 1, 1994 Police Benefit Multiply the cost of the plan times the percentage that you must pay (see the Retiree Information section of your selection form). As an I.B.E.W. Bargaining Unit Employee, retired since February 1, 1984 until September 30, 2005 I.B.E.W. Benefit Multiply the cost of the plan times 5%. If you are enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B, the City pays 100%. I.B.E.W. Trust -for IBEW workers who retire on or after 10/1/05, please contact the IBEW Trust for your cost at 818-243-0222. All others* who retired in 1988 or later Percentage Contribution Multiply the maximum City Contribution times the percentage the City will pay.

For those members who elected their spouses plan to be primary, the City is offering a plan designed specifically for Kaiser retirees with double coverage. It is your responsibility to notify the City if you have additional Kaiser coverage outside the City. Kaiser Double Coverage California Single $182.60 $182.60 Two-Party $365.20 $365.20 The City is assessed a penalty by Kaiser for retirees over age 65 who do not have Medicare or do not assign Medicare benefits to Kaiser. The cost of the penalty can be over $14,000 annually. Although the City pays a significant part of medical plan premiums, added costs like this lead to increased retiree premiums. By taking steps to control costs, such as assigning your Medicare benefits, you re helping to keep costs low and allowing the City to preserve the quality benefits available to all City retirees.
