Your benefits now include broader access to mental health support for all ASEBP covered members, and additional Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance options for ASEBP MyRetiree Plan members. These changes, effective January 1, 2026, are designed to give you more choice and peace of mind.
Broader access to mental health support – all ASEBP covered members
Registered Social Workers (RSWs) are added as eligible providers under ASEBP’s psychology and counselling coverage, with up to $120 per treatment covered.
Adding RSWs expands your options, making it easier to find qualified mental health support—especially in rural areas where psychologists may be less available.
Please note: The daily treatment limit and combined yearly maximum for psychology and counselling coverage remain the same. Visit the Medical Services and Supplies page for more information on psychology and counselling coverage limitations and maximums.
More flexibility for Life and AD&D insurance through the MyRetiree Plan
ASEBP heard from MyRetiree Plan members that a more flexible and affordable option would be appreciated when it comes to Life and AD&D insurance. In response to this feedback, a new flat $25,000 Life and AD&D insurance option is now available for members under 65.
The new $25,000 flat-rate option:
- Provides access to members who were previously ineligible.
- Offers a more affordable alternative for those who don’t need higher coverage amounts.
- Allows you to choose the level of coverage that best fits your needs and budget.
Visit the Life and AD&D insurance for more information on this option.
These plan updates are part of ASEBP’s commitment to continuously improve your benefits—guided by your feedback and focused on supporting your overall health and wellness.
