*Both plans include a $2.00 processing and handling fee.
Your insurance coverage will begin the day your application and check are received and processed by the PEC Membership Chair. All policies expire December 31. Please note that due to various mail delivery timeframes, inclement weather and other unforeseen circumstances, processing could take 2-3 weeks.
