As previously announced, Montgomery County Government (MCG) increased its employer cost-sharing contribution from 75% to 80%. This applies to all group insurance plans except the Kaiser and UnitedHealthCare HMOs, since MCG already contributes 80% to these plans. The 80% employer / 20% employee rates will appear on paychecks dated July 29, 2022 as well as
www.montgomerycountymd.gov/HI > Active Employees > Resources > Rates.
To view the new rates and your savings per paycheck, see the chart below and please note the following:
- Life insurance rates: Basic Life Insurance and AD&D rates are not included in the chart below because rates vary per employee based on salary; also, Optional Life rates are not changing since employees pay 100% of the premiums.
- 10-month employees: The rates below apply to employees on 26 pay cycles; for 10-month employees rates (21 pay cycles), please click here .
- Full-scope temporary employees: Since you pay 100% of your group insurance premiums, the 5% employer group insurance contribution increase does not apply.
