Annual Benefit Statements will be distributed to members by the end of March.

This is a valuable planning tool because a significant part of your employee’s total compensation is through the value of the benefits they receive as a state employee (pension, healthcare, life, and long-term disability insurance, employer contributions to Social Security, etc.) plus the value of time off (annual leave, sick leave, and holidays).

Their Annual Benefit Statement contains all this information in one convenient document. They will also be able to access their Annual Benefit Statement from their Document Express online mailbox by logging in to myMOSERS. It is available for them to print or save for later reference. They will receive an email from MOSERS once their statement is posted. If they have opted to receive their correspondence from MOSERS through the mail, their statement will be sent to their home address and it is also available as described above.

Phoenix Update

Welcome, Tricia Kliethermes!

MOSERS Month is Coming in April

Recently Updated Resources

You may recall receiving periodic updates regarding the new pension administration system we’re developing called Phoenix. Phoenix is a modernized system that will be more intuitive and help us – MOSERS and its covered employers – to be even better at administering timely and accurate benefits to state employees. Staff and other key stakeholders are fine-tuning the project timeline, and we anticipate launching Phoenix later in 2023. We look forward to sharing details in the coming months and will provide training opportunities before we deploy this new system. Stay tuned! 

The 2023 education schedule is here!

MOSERS educational programs are designed to help state employees learn information about their benefits as they progress through their careers and experience different life events along the way. Please encourage your employees to register for a session! The schedule includes both in-person seminars and online webinars.

Newer Employees & MOSERS Webinars – Employees can start learning about the state benefits administered by MOSERS, including pension plan features, life insurance, long-term disability, and their personal retirement savings plan options with MO Deferred Comp.

Mid-Career Webinar – Employees can learn how different career and life events may affect their pension benefit.

Ready to Retire Sessions – Employees can learn about the retirement process and how different decisions may impact their pension benefit.

Please send your employees our way and remind them to visit the Education page for more information!

We need your help with LTD submissions!

Please remember to submit the simplified and updated Long Term Disability Employer Statement to ltdmosers@standard.com when you know your employee is applying for long-term disability (LTD) benefits.

Please advise your employee to call The Standard at (844) 505-6026 to initiate their LTD claim. Among other personal questions, The Standard will ask for the name, address, phone and fax number of their physician, as well as their HR representative’s name and e-mail address.

For more information on the LTD application process, please watch the LTD webinar put together by The Standard to illustrate the most effective way to file for LTD benefits.
