You - You are eligible for coverage if you are an active full-time employee of IDT, regularly working a minimum of 30 hours per week and have completed the new hire waiting period of 90 days from date of hire.
 

Your Family - You may elect to cover your lawful spouse under age 70 and your unmarried dependent children from live birth and younger than 19 years old; or younger than 25 years old and a full-time student; 19 years of age or older and primarily supported by the employee and incapable of self-sustaining employment because of a mental or physical handicap.

Rates are subject to change.

To help protect yourself and your family against losses due to accidents, Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurance pays 100% of the benefit amount you select for accidental loss of life occurring within 365 days of a covered accident. A covered accident is a sudden unforeseeable event that results in injury or death and that occurs while coverage is in force. To help survivors of severe accidents adjust to new living circumstances, NYL GBS will pay benefits for dismemberment, loss of eyesight, speech and hearing, and paralysis.
 

If the same accident causes more than one of these losses, we will pay only one amount, but it will be the largest amount that applies.

Loss of hand or foot means complete severance through or above the wrist or ankle joint. Loss of sight means the total, permanent loss of the sight of the eye. The loss of sight must be irrecoverable by natural, surgical, or artificial means. Loss of speech means total, permanent and irrecoverable loss of audible communication. Loss of hearing means total and permanent loss of hearing in both ears, which cannot be corrected by any means. Loss of a thumb and index finger means complete severance through or above the metacarpophalangeal joints (the joints between the fingers and the hand). Paralysis means loss of use, without severance, of a limb. This loss must be determined by a doctor to be complete and not reversible. Severance means complete separation and dismemberment of the limb from the body.

For Child Care Expenses

Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurance pays an additional benefit to help pay for your children's child care expenses.
 

If you have elected to cover your family members and you or your insured die as a result of a covered accident and you have a surviving child under 13 who is enrolled in a licensed child care center at the time of the accident or within 1 year afterward, we will pay a child care center benefit. This benefit will be an annual sum for each covered child of up to 12% of your benefit amount but not more than $5,000 per year for 5 years or until the child turns 13, whichever occurs first.
 

We will make the payment to the child's surviving custodial parent or legal guardian.
 

Each payment will be made at the end of a 12-month period in which there were documented child care center expenses.
 

For Wearing a Seat belt and Protection by an Airbag

This benefit is payable if an insured person dies as a direct result of injuries sustained in a covered accident while driving or riding in an automobile*, while wearing a properly fastened seat belt (or if the insured is a child, a child restraint as defined by law). That person's death benefit will be increased by 10% but not more than $25,000. If the insured person was also positioned in a seat protected by a properly-functioning, original, factory-installed and properly deployed Supplemental Restraint System ** (Airbag), we will increase that person's death benefit by an additional 10% but not by more than $10,000.
 

Verification of the actual use of the seat belt and that the supplemental restraint system inflated properly on impact at the time of the accident, must be part of an official report of the accident, or be certified, in writing, by the investigating officer(s) and submitted with the claim.
 

If it is unclear whether the insured had been wearing a seat belt or that the person was positioned in a seat protected by a properly functioning and properly deployed airbag, the plan will pay a benefit of $1,000. No benefit will be paid if the official accident report indicates that no seat belt was worn and the air bag did not inflate at the time of the accident.

The Education Benefit

If you are the primary source of income for your family, the loss of that income could be devastating to your family, especially if a college education for your children is one of your long-term goals. What’s more, your spouse might need to go back to school in order to gain new skills for employment. Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurance provides benefits for training or education, as follows:

• For your children. If you die in a covered accident, we will pay an extra benefit for each insured child who is enrolled in college or the 12th grade and enrolls in college within one year of the accident. To help pay college expenses, we will increase your benefit amount by actual charges up to 5% or $5,000, whichever is less, for each qualifying child. This benefit is payable each year for four consecutive years, as long as your children continue their college education. If no Dependent Child qualifies for this benefit within one year of your death in a covered accident, we will pay $1,000 to your beneficiary.
• For your spouse. If, within three years of your death in a covered accident, your spouse enrolls in an accredited school to gain skills for employment, we will pay the actual cost of this education or training program up to 5% or $5,000, whichever is less.

Hospital Stay Benefit

This benefit pays if a covered person requires hospital confinement*** for treatment of injuries sustained in a covered accident after the 7-day waiting period or a daily maximum of $100, if less. This benefit is payable up to 365 days per covered accident, per covered person.
 

Exposure and Disappearance

This benefit pays for covered losses resulting from unavoidable exposure to the elements after the forced landing, stranding, sinking, or wrecking of a vehicle in which you are traveling. It also allows the presumption of death if your body is not found within a year of a covered accident.
 

Common-Carrier Benefit

A covered person must be a passenger at the time of the common-carrier accident, and a proper authority must have licensed the vehicle to transport passengers for a fee. Common-carrier vehicles are limited to airplanes, trains, buses, trolleys, and boats that operate on a regularly scheduled basis between predetermined points or cities. Taxis are not included. This benefit automatically increases your coverage by 50%, up to $500,000.
 

*Automobile means a self-propelled, private passenger motor vehicle with four or more wheels which is of a type both designed and required to be licensed for use on the highways of any state or country. Automobile includes but is not limited to a sedan, station wagon, sport utility vehicle or a motor vehicle of the pickup, van, motor home or camper type. Automobile does not include a mobile home or any motor vehicle which is used in mass or public transit.

**Supplemental Restraint System means an airbag that inflates upon impact for added protection to the head and chest areas.

***Hospital confinement is defined as a 24-hour overnight stay of a covered person confined to a hospital as an inpatient for which a charge is made. The confinement must be on the advice of a physician and medically necessary. Benefits are also payable for confinement in hospitals operated by or for the United States government. Confinement must start within 30 days of the accident.
