AD&D Plan
Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) coverage through MetLife provides benefits to your family if you die or are dismembered as the result of an accident.
All benefits eligible employees receive the Syracuse University sponsored basic AD&D insurance coverage in the amount of $3,000 from the University at no cost.
You may purchase Supplemental AD&D coverage through MetLife up to ten times your salary in conjunction with and not to exceed your own combined basic and supplemental life insurance coverage.
Participants in Supplemental AD&D also have access to travel assistance services when faced with an emergency while traveling more than 100 miles from home. This service provides you and your dependents medical, travel, legal and financial assistance services any time of the year.
Contributions
Supplemental AD&D coverage is $.02 (2 cents) per $1,000 of coverage. Premiums are paid through pre-tax payroll deduction and are automatically calculated and adjusted as necessary during the calendar year based upon actual salary and actual age.
