The City of San Jose offers two
voluntary insurance programs, underwritten by Trustmark, as convenient ways for City
employees to have protection against the unexpected. All policies pay cash directly to the participant in addition to any other coverage. These benefits can help protect earnings,
take care of monthly bills, or pay for the extra costs of an injury or illness.
Accident Insurance – People do everything they can to keep their family safe, but accidents do happen. When they do,
it’s good to know there is help to manage the medical costs associated with accidental injuries. Trustmark’s
Accident Insurance helps take care of medical bills, so individuals can take care of their family.
Cancer & Critical Illness Insurance – Critical Illness Insurance provides a substantial cash benefit upon the first
diagnosis (the first time a physician identifies a covered condition from its signs or symptoms) of a covered critical
illness or conditions to help protect against the costs associated with them. The benefit amount is paid in full
regardless of any other insurance that may be in force.
Eligibility
All full-time and part-time benefited employees may enroll in one or both of the City’s voluntary insurance plans.
Cost
Rates for each insurance product vary depending on several factors, including level of coverage selected and the age of the participant.
