This workshop is open only to members who work for a State of Iowa agency eligible for the SLIP program. The Sick Leave Insurance Program (SLIP) offers retirement-eligible employees an option for using all or part of their unused sick leave balance to pay the state share of their group health insurance premiums after they retire until they become eligible for Medicare (usually at age 65).

This class provides you with a broad range of information you need as you near retirement. Representatives from several retirement-related programs participate, including the Retirement Investors' Club, Social Security, SHIIP (Medicare), IPERS and Continuing Insurance Benefits at Retirement/SLIP.

See additional details on this workshop for State of Iowa employees that are 3 to 5 years from retirement.
