Hampshire County Retirement System


Who do I contact for Health Insurance questions?

Your former employer provides and administers your health insurance coverage. HCRS acts only as a pass-through for withholding premiums as a convenience to you. If you chose to have your insurance premiums withheld from your benefit check, deductions will be taken and forwarded as directed by your former employer.

Enrollment, changes, direct payment of premiums or any questions about your Health and Life Insurance plan or premium amounts should be directed through your employer.

For those retired from the former Hampshire County or HCOG your insurance is through the State Group Insurance program. Your changes or questions should be directed to Group Insurance Commission at (617) 727-2310.
