 Life Insurance, Disability Protection, and Long-Term Care Insurance

• Death and Disability Protection – Active Clergy

- Comprehensive Protection Plan (CPP) - Provides disability, death and other supplemental benefits to participating clergy and their families. This is a mandatory plan for all clergy serving in a fulltime appointment.  The 2013 Schedule of Benefits reflects changes to retiree death benefits as approved at General Conference 2012.

                 2013 Schedule of Benefits

- UMLifeOptions Clergy Supplemental Life Insurance - Provides supplemental life insurance plans for eligible clergy. Clergy eligible for and enrolled in the CPP (see above) are automatically enrolled in the Clergy Supplemental Life Insurance plan upon appointment. The benefits include $50,000 life insurance and $50,000 Accidental Death & Dismemberment for the active clergy participant, and $5,000 life insurance for the spouse of the active clergy participant. The benefits in this plan are in addition to the life insurance provided to the active clergy through the CPP.

- UMLifeOptions Optional Life Insurance Plan – Provides an opportunity for eligible active clergy to purchase additional life insurance for themselves, their spouse and eligible children. This is in addition to the life insurance provided by the conference through the CPP and the Clergy Supplemental Life Insurance Plan.

•  Death and Disability Protection – Lay Employees

- UMLifeOptions Provides long-term disability and life insurance plans to eligible lay employees. This plan is available for lay employees through the General Board of Pension & Health Benefits. Local churches may elect to adopt this plan to provide a life insurance benefit, disability income protection, or both, for their lay employees. Local churches can contact Terry Shoemaker in the New Mexico Conference Office if they are interested in sponsoring this plan.
