Do not close your bank account until your last paycheck has cleared. Final paychecks will be direct deposited. If you have additional money due after your last regular paycheck, i.e. internal moonlighting, this will also be direct deposited. To avoid delay in receiving your W2, keep your address updated with the GME Payroll Administrator, Nancy Mckay.

CU GME Health/Dental Plan and/or CU GME EyeMed Vision Care Plan enrollees may choose COBRA continuation coverage for the plan(s) in which they were enrolled immediately prior to termination of active coverage.
GME will notify AmeriBen, the claims administrator, of your (upcoming) termination of coverage. AmeriBen will mail the following to your home address:
- Notification of Right to Elect Continuation of Group Health Benefits/COBRA. This will include Election/Enrollment Form and premium rate information.
- Letter regarding your CU GME Health/Dental Plan termination of coverage (Certificates of Creditable Coverage). This letter will most likely be required by your next insurance plan. Please keep it. You will need it.
For known June and July exits, AmeriBen will mail this information to your home address during the last week in May. If you do not receive it or misplace it, call AmeriBen, 1-866-955-1498, for instructions on how to obtain a copy. Your individualized copy of the above information must be obtained directly from AmeriBen.

To obtain the forms necessary to request conversion rates, contact GME Director of Benefits at 303-724-6024.
You should have your own copy of the records that you provided when you entered a GME training program and also have kept a copy of PPD documentation each year when you provided it to GME’s designated provider.
If you did not retain a copy of your documentation, you may email PROHealth@dhha.org to request a copy of the information. Phone requests are not permissible.
