If your coverage ends because you no longer work for Stryker or you are no longer in an eligible class, and you are later rehired or return to your eligible class within 13 weeks (and within the same plan year), coverage for you and your covered dependents may be reinstated. Evidence of Insurability will not be required as long as you return within 13 weeks and request reinstatement of coverage within 31 days of returning. The reinstated coverage will be the same amount that was in force when coverage ended; however, any amount which was converted or ported will not be reinstated, unless that coverage is canceled.
