2 Accidents happen, and when they do, the plans of a lifetime can be changed forever. Unfortunately, there is no way to guarantee that you or your family will never be involved in some form of accident. However, thanks to this Optional Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance Plan, financial compensation may be available if you or a member of your family dies or is injured as the result of an accident. How It Works Optional Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance is available in two forms: a Member Plan and a Family plan. It offers coverage in units of $50,000 up to the maximum principal sum of $300,000. The protection you receive is in force 24 hours a day, whether you're at work, home or on vacation. What's more, because the Memorial University Alumni Association has endorsed this plan, you can make your payments through no-charge monthly automatic bank deduction. What could be easier than that? Who s Eligible for Coverage? If you're under the age of 65, you and your spouse are eligible for coverage. Your unmarried, dependent children are also eligible for coverage if you choose the Family Plan. (We consider dependent children to be unmarried children of the member or the member's spouse who are less than 21 years, or up to 25 years if they are attending an accredited educational institution on a full-time basis.) What Does It Cover? Accidents resulting in death, loss of limbs or use of limbs, sight, speech or hearing are covered anytime, while at work, home, or on vacation. However, please remember that all coverage terminates at age 70. Coverage Limitations Your Optional Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance does not provide coverage for death or injury resulting from: any intentionally self-inflicted injury suicide while sane or insane viral or bacterial infections disease or illness physical or mental infirmity medical or surgical treatment war (declared or undeclared), insurrection, or participation in a riot air travel unless you are a passenger on a regularly-scheduled flight Service including part-time or temporary service in the armed forces of any country 2
