2025 life and AD&D insurance plans
Basic life and AD&D insurance
Myriad Genetics provides company-paid teammate life insurance coverage of a specific amount that lasts throughout your employment.
Supplemental life insurance
If you want additional coverage, you can buy supplemental life insurance for yourself and your family.
Be sure to name a beneficiary
Designate a beneficiary (and keep it up-to-date) in order to receive the benefit paid by a life insurance policy. Visit the Oracle Self Service website to add or change a beneficiary.
Basic Life and AD&D Insurance
Myriad Genetics provides basic life and AD&D insurance to assist you and your family in the event of a death or dismemberment. These benefits are fully paid by the company and coverage is automatic — you do not need to enroll.
Benefits are equal to:
- Basic life insurance: 1x your base salary from a $50,000 minimum up to a $500,000 maximum.
- Basic AD&D insurance: Provided as part of your basic life insurance. Basic AD&D coverage equals the amount of your basic life insurance coverage.
What is AD&D insurance?
If you lose your life, sight, hearing, speech, or use of your limb(s) in an accident, AD&D insurance provides additional benefits to help keep your family financially secure. AD&D benefits are paid as a percentage of your coverage amount depending on the type of loss.
How company-paid life insurance is taxed
The IRS requires you to pay taxes on the value of any company-paid life insurance coverage over $50,000. This is called imputed income; you’ll notice it on your pay statements and your W-2.
Supplemental Life Insurance
For more financial protection beyond Myriad Genetics’ basic coverage, you can buy supplemental life insurance for yourself and your family members. You can enroll on the Oracle Self Service website as a new hire, during Open Enrollment, or if you have a qualifying life event. You pay the full cost of this coverage, which is provided through The Hartford. You must purchase coverage for yourself in order to purchase it for your dependents.
Supplemental life insurance
| Who are you covering: | Life insurance |
|---|---|

Supplemental life insurance for you and your spouse/partner over a certain benefit amount may require evidence of insurability (EOI), or proof of good health. You will receive more information after electing coverage if EOI is required.
