7 63 166 204 108 188 216 155 210 229 210 234 242 240 106 0 247 183 125 243 152 68 250 218 188 110 192 64 151 210 118 183 224 160 218 239 207 242 1 108 247 61 150 249 127 185 251 191 220 75 100 125 150 7 With LGPS Ill Health Liability Insurance Request for payment in event of valid claim Claim submitted Payment of claim Full and final settlement paid on valid claim Premium paid to L&G and a reduction to the contribution rate applied to reflect this

8 63 166 204 108 188 216 155 210 229 210 234 242 240 106 0 247 183 125 243 152 68 250 218 188 110 192 64 151 210 118 183 224 160 218 239 207 242 1 108 247 61 150 249 127 185 251 191 220 75 100 125 150 8 Advantages: Ill Health Liability Insurance Cost Neutrality – the premium will be offset against your employer contribution rate (1.35%) E.g. if you pay 19.30% this will be reduced to 17.95%. Stabilised contribution rates and balance sheet - as poor ill health experience will be removed Removes potentially catastrophic ill- health early retirements costs Multiple Claims Cover – Insures against the cost of multiple and aggregated claims Free access to L&G ’s 24h Employee Assistance Programme as part of cover
