History

N.J. Public Officials' & Public Employees' Accident/Health Insurance Plan

This plan has been in operation since 1946 when the State of New Jersey passed the law enabling public employees to participate in a voluntary plan of accident and sickness insurance through payroll deduction of premiums. It provides essential income replacement of insured employees, in addition to accumulated sick leave or other disability insurance.

In 1980, the New Jersey Temporary Disability Benefits Law was amended to afford State employees disability benefits after the exhaustion of all accumulated sick leave. This further created the need for supplemental policies which provide additional funds to enable employees to better secure their financial picture in the event of accident or illness.

John Couch instrumented the availability of this benefit program over 60 years ago. Since that time, the needs of society and individual people have evolved and changed tremendously.
