Impact on Benefits
You must remove your spouse from Company benefit coverage within 30 days of your divorce.
Certain covered family members may have court-ordered rights under a Qualified Medical Child Support Order (QMCSO) to have their health care benefits continued under your coverage.
Your ex-spouse may have certain court-ordered rights under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) to your benefits under the Retirement Plan and/or 401(k) Savings & Investment Plan and/or Mercer HR Services Retirement Plan.
You should review your beneficiary designations. If your spouse was named as your beneficiary, the beneficiary designation is not automatically revoked by your divorce.
