Federally Required Compliance Notice About Hospital Indemnity Insurance

IMPORTANT: This is a fixed indemnity policy, NOT health insurance. This fixed indemnity policy may pay you a limited dollar amount if you're sick or hospitalized. You're still responsible for paying the cost of your care.

  • The payment you get isn't based on the size of your medical bill.
  • There might be a limit on how much this policy will pay each year.
  • This policy isn't a substitute for comprehensive health insurance.
  • Since this policy isn't health insurance, it doesn't have to include most Federal consumer protections that apply to health insurance.

Looking for comprehensive health insurance?

  • Visit HealthCare.gov or call 1-800-318-2596 (TTY: 1-855-889-4325) to find health coverage options.
  • To find out if you can get health insurance through your job, or a family member's job, contact the employer.

Questions about this policy?

  • For questions or complaints about this policy, contact your State Department of Insurance. Find their number on the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' website (naic.org) under "Insurance Departments."
  • If you have this policy through your job, or a family member's job, contact the employer.

How to Enroll

As you review your health and insurance benefit options, keep in mind that you need to enroll within 31 days of your hire date. There are three ways to enroll:

With Assistance From a Benefits Counselor

Schedule a personalized phone enrollment session with a licensed benefits counselor who will explain your options, get to know your needs, and recommend benefits that may be best for you and your family. You benefits counselor can help you enroll in all your Citi benefits — health, insurance and retirement — so you have more time to focus on getting settled into your new role. This hands-on service is available to you during your first 31 days at Citi.

Online

If you know what benefits you’d like to elect and want to enroll online, visit Your Benefits Resources (YBR™) at any time of day or night, available through My Total Compensation and Benefits.

To enroll in Group Universal Life (GUL) and Supplemental AD&D insurance, you must do so directly with MetLife. Visit My Total Compensation and Benefits and click on “Group Universal Life” under “Want to get to our best in class vendors fast?” to connect to the MetLife MyBenefits website.

By Phone

To make your benefit elections by phone, call the Citi Benefits Center via ConnectOne at 1 (800) 881-3938, 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. From the “benefits” menu, select the “health and insurance benefits as well as TRIP and spending accounts” option. If you’re outside the United States or Puerto Rico, call 1 (469) 220-9600.

Note: All family members must be listed as a covered dependent under each individual plan. When enrolling by phone, you must ask a Citi Benefits Center representative to “cover” each dependent.

Reminder: Designate Your Beneficiaries

When you enroll in benefits, don’t forget to designate beneficiaries for life insurance, AD&D insurance, the Citi Retirement Savings Plan and the Health Savings Account, if applicable. To designate your beneficiary information for Group Universal Life (GUL) and Supplemental AD&D insurance, you must do so directly with MetLife. Visit My Total Compensation and Benefits and click on “Group Universal Life” under “Want to get to our best in class vendors fast?” to connect to the MetLife MyBenefits website.

Retirement Savings Plan

The Citi Retirement Savings Plan helps you plan and prepare for retirement no matter where you are in your career. You can set your contribution rate and select your investment option(s) as early as your first day at Citi. If you do not take any action within the first 90 days from your hire date, you will automatically be enrolled in the Plan, and 6% of your eligible pay will be withheld from your paycheck each pay period and contributed to the Citi Retirement Savings Plan on a before-tax basis. In addition, if you are automatically enrolled, your contribution rate will increase by 1% each year in March until it reaches 15%. Review your account options, contribution limits and more.

You can access your Retirement Savings Plan account at any time on My Total Compensation and Benefits. Or, for personalized guidance with your plan enrollment or account updates during your first 31 days at Citi, schedule a phone appointment with a benefits counselor.
