25 NCAC 01B .0424. HEALTH INSURANCE

Employees reinstated from dismissal shall be entitled to either retroactive coverage under the state health insurance plan or to reimbursement up to the amount the state contributes for employee only coverage.  The employee shall have the right to elect between these two choices, provided that if the employee elects reimbursement the employee may do so only if the employee had secured alternate health insurance coverage during the period of interruption of employment.  The employee shall not be reimbursed for the cost of coverage of dependents or spouse during the period between dismissal and reinstatement.  It is the responsibility of the employee to provide proof of insurance expenses incurred during the period of unemployment.
