Does the Ticket to Work legislation effect individuals who opt to suspend Medigap coverage for coverage with an employer health plan? |

Answer |
|
Yes. The Ticket to Work and Work Incentive Improvement Act (TWWIIA) requires, at a policyholder's request, suspension of Medigap coverage and premiums for those entitled to Medicare Part A if the worker with a disability is covered under an employer group health plan. The law also requires automatic reinstatement of a Medigap policy if group coverage is lost and the employee makes the request within ninety days of losing employer coverage.
