Long Term Care Insurance
Long Term Care (LTC) insurance will no longer be offered through OEBB. Earlier this year, Unum stopped accepting new LTC insurance applications, and as a result, the OEBB Board decided to discontinue offering this coverage.
If you are currently enrolled in LTC insurance, your existing coverage may continue. You also have the option to make changes to or cancel your coverage. To continue, change, or cancel your coverage, you must complete and submit the appropriate form(s) by November 29.
