Information on Social Security and Medicare

Social Security and Medicare can be confusing and there are different ways and ages to take advantage of these government benefits. To be mailed a quick reference to help you begin navigating Social Security and Medicare, contact the Benefits Team in Human Resources at benefits@discounttire.com or 1-800-347-4348.

Retiree Medical Bridge Plan

Continuation of medical benefits is a major factor to consider when thinking of retirement. To help alleviate these concerns, the Retiree Medical Bridge Plan allows an eligible employee and their spouse to obtain the same medical/prescription drug coverage in retirement that is provided to active employees . To be eligible for the Plan, an employee must be at least 60 years old and have at least 25 years of full-time service with the Company. Coverage would be in effect from the date of retirement to the date the retiree qualifies for Medicare (the bridge period), currently age 65.
