[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 4596256, member: 49065"] I am in Team care in the Central..sorry about what your wife is going through. If you retire you can continue with team care under their retirement health and welfare plan ... You just have to pay 400 a month for you and your spouse. I do not know if the benefits are the same as being active. Your wife might qualify for Medicare because of her Illness or qualify for social security disability, I would check into that. You can sign up for Medicare without losing her current team care coverage even if you retire till age 65. They will not deny her health coverage if you decide to retire. It was mentioned above that team care’s retiree benefits are maxed out at 250,000 annually..that could proof a problem if your medical bills exceed that limit. My wife is currently having medical problems also and I might have to continue to work just to make sure we are not slammed financially. Once you retire you will at the mercy of your health provider so if they start to lose money your rates might skyrocket or lose them all together. Right now team care is solid and should be considering the amount of money being contributed. You know that once you and your wife turns 65 you are automatically kicked off team care coverage.
