<br /> EAP Services Agreement <br />4 <br />VIII.TERM AND TERMINATION <br />A. Term. The Initial Term of this Agreement for the provision of Benefits to Members hereunder is set <br />forth on the Cover Sheet of this Agreement. Thereafter, Group may extend the Agreement for two <br />additional one-year periods. Any extension will require a written amendment executed by both parties <br />indicating the effective date, length, rate, and terms of the extension of the Agreement, subject to the <br />termination provisions contained herein. <br />B. Termination of Individual Member. <br />1. Loss of Eligibility. If an employee ceases to meet the eligibility requirements of Group, as <br />determined by Group’s personnel and benefit policies, then coverage for Benefits under this <br />Agreement for such employee, and all other Members covered for Benefits through the employee, <br />terminates automatically at midnight on the last day of the month in which the employee ceases to <br />meet the eligibility requirements of Group. Group shall notify Plan monthly of the employees <br />ceasing to meet Group’s eligibility requirements. Plan shall not charge an employee who ceases <br />to meet Group’s eligibility requirements, or Members covered for Benefits through such employee, <br />for Benefits rendered prior to Group’s notice to Plan of the employee’s loss of eligibility. <br />2. Right to Review. A Member who alleges that his or her rights hereunder were terminated or not <br />renewed because of the Member's health status or requirements for Benefits, may request a review <br />of the termination by the Director pursuant to Section 1365(b) of the California Health and Safety <br />Code. <br />C. Termination of Group. <br />1. Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated by Group, with or without <br />cause, by giving Plan at least ninety (90) days advance written notice stating when, after the date <br />of such notice, termination shall become effective. This Agreement may also be terminated by <br />Plan for nonpayment, as provided in Section VIII.C.2 and VIII.C.3. <br />2. Nonpayment. If Group fails to pay any amount due Plan within thirty (30) days after Plan's notice <br />to Group of, and bill for the amount due, then Plan may terminate the rights of the Members <br />involved, effective upon Plan's issuance of notification of cancellation to Group. Such rights may <br />be reinstated only by payment of the amounts due and in accordance with Section VIII.C.3. Plan <br />shall continue to provide Benefits to Members until expiration of the applicable reinstatement <br />period and shall not charge Members for services rendered during such period. Thereafter, Plan <br />shall not be liable for Benefits to Members. <br />3. Reinstatement. Receipt by Plan of the proper Periodic Fees within fifteen (15) days of Plan's <br />issuance of the notice of cancellation to Group for non-payment of Periodic Fees shall reinstate <br />the Members as though there never was a cancellation. If such payment is received after said <br />fifteen (15) day period, Plan, at its option, may either refund to Group the amounts paid and <br />consider this Agreement terminated, or issue to Group, within twenty (20) days of the receipt of <br />such payment, a new agreement accompanied by written notice stating clearly those respects in <br />which the new agreement differs from this Agreement in Benefits or other terms. <br />REV: 03-10-23 MI <br />ATTY/AGR.2023.039/Aetna (EAP Services Agreement) (Page 5 of 42)
