For late enrollees or coverage in amounts above the guaranteed issue limit, you will need to complete an Evidence of Insurability (EOI) form with additional health information to New York Life for review. EOI allows the insurance carrier to determine the risk in offering you additional coverage. In some cases, a physical exam or blood work may be required.
To complement your MetLife life insurance coverage, for those employees enrolled in the Voluntary AD&D benefit, you have access to Travel Assistance services, a useful program giving you and covered family members access to travel assistance professionals at AXA Assistance USA, Inc. when traveling within the U.S. or abroad. They have the expertise to help when you need emergency medical, travel and personal assistance. Please refer to the Travel Assistance flyer to the right for information.
Long-Term Disability
Long-term disability (LTD) insurance—protects you should you become disabled for a prolonged period prior to retirement. This is an extremely important benefit; in that it will provide disability income until your Social Security Normal Retirement Age in the case of a disability.
Short-Term Disability

Short-term disability (STD) insurance—helps you remain financially stable if you are temporarily disabled when you become injured or ill and cannot work for a short period of time, including maternity. This coverage allows you to receive weekly payments based on a set percentage of your income. When this STD coverage ends, long-term disability (LTD) coverage typically takes effect.
