Subject to the right of an employee or annuitant to
cancel his or her enrollment at any time, the enrollment of an employee or
annuitant continues without change when he or she:
(a) returns to covered employment without a
break in service of one or more full monthly pay periods.

under the State Civil Service Act and the rules of the Department of Personnel
Administration for a period of one or more full monthly pay periods including
leaves of absence for military duty, or other comparable leave, or begins an

day of the month following the month in which the last payroll deduction was
taken.

If an enrolled employee or annuitant is not competent to
act, the guardian, conservator, or person having special power of attorney of
such enrolled employee or annuitant may act on his or her behalf to accomplish
continuation of any enrollment permitted by this section.

failure to pay premiums after filing an application will result in loss of
coverage for any period for which premiums were not paid.
