County's health insurance provider, until either of the following: I) Retiree attains the NRA,
or becomes eligible for health insurance coverage with another employer,or becomes eligible
for Medicaid or Medicare coverage before attaining the NRA, or becomes otherwise
ineligible; or 2) Dependent(s) lose(s) his or her (their) eligibility for continued health
insurance by attaining the NRA, or becoming eligible for health insurance coverage with
another employer, or becoming eligible for Medicaid or Medicare coverage before attaining
the NRA. Such continued health insurance shall be the same as that offered to regular, full-
time, current employees of Weld County, through the same health insurance provider.
Retiree, on behalf of his or her dependent(s), acknowledges and agrees that the health
insurance provider who is providing such continued health insurance may change without
Retiree's and\or his or her dependent(s)' consent.
3. DETERMINATION OF ELIGIBILITY: The determination of eligibility for the Retiree's

Dependent(s) shall also be the same as that paid on behalf of regular, full-time, current

acknowledges and agrees that premium rates may change without Retiree's and\or his or her
dependent(s)' consent.
6. RETIREE WORKING FOR WELD COUNTY IN LESS THAN FULL-TIME POSITION:
The fact that Retiree may continue to work for Weld County in less than a full-time position
does not make Retiree and\or his or her Dependent(s) ineligible for continued health
insurance, if the requisites of eligibility set forth above are otherwise met.
•
7. TERM: The term of this Agreement is from December 16, 1998, or the Retiree's date of
