After Service Health Insurance

Staff members are reminded that, among the eligibility requirements for after-service health insurance coverage, the applicant must be enrolled in a United Nations scheme at the time of separation from service.

It should also be noted that only family members enrolled with the staff member at the time of separation are eligible for continued coverage under the programme.

Enrolment in the after-service health insurance programme is not automatic. Application for enrolment must be made within 31 days following the date of separation. Full details on the eligibility requirements and administrative procedures relating to after-service health insurance coverage are set out in administrative instruction ST/AI/2007/3, dated 1 July 2007.
