For most Registered Nurses in the Department of Behavioral Health, Developmental Disabilities, and Hospitals (BHDDH), there is a minimum retirement eligibility age. For some, your retirement eligibility may mirror your Social Security Normal Retirement Age (SSNRA). Based on your retirement schedule, your retirement age and required years of service may differ. Your schedule is determined by the date you were hired and the number of years of service you had at certain points in time.
Here are the retirement schedules for BHDDH Registered Nurses:
- Schedule MO: members who were 50 years or older with 25 years of contributory service within BHDDH by September 30, 2009 are eligible to retire.
- Schedule MABE: members vested with at least 10 years of contributory service prior to or on July 1, 2005, and were not eligible to retire as of September 30, 2009 but became eligible by June 30, 2012 by reaching 25 years of contributory service within BHDDH. Their retirement age is 55, proportionally scaled back based on years of service earned as of September 30, 2009.
- Schedule MABNE: members vested with at least 10 years of contributory service prior to or on July 1, 2005, but were not eligible to retire by June 30, 2012.
