Supplemental Coverage for VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System Employees
VA Southern Nevada federal employees participate in the Federal Employees Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) program, which provides a base level of coverage. However, FEGLI costs can rise significantly with age, and federal employees approaching retirement often see coverage reduced substantially. Individually owned supplemental life insurance from an A-rated (A.M. Best) carrier provides federal healthcare workers with predictable, permanent coverage options that complement FEGLI — and remain in force even as FEGLI coverage diminishes in retirement. Agents in our network understand federal employee benefit structures and can identify gaps.
Guarantees are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance carrier. No personalized coverage recommendation is made — work with a licensed agent to determine what is right for your situation.

VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System Employee Life Insurance Questions
FEGLI provides a meaningful base level of coverage, but the basic option (1x salary) leaves gaps for higher earners. Optional coverages cost more as you age, making individually underwritten policies increasingly competitive as federal employees get older.
FEGLI provides options for continuing coverage at retirement, but benefits are typically reduced significantly (often to 25% of pre-retirement amount) without additional premium payments. Individual policies face no such reduction.
Yes. Agents in our network can review your FEGLI enrollment and compare individual policy options so you can make an informed decision about what combination of coverage best protects your family.
