16 <br /> Section VIII. Board of Commissioners' Compensation (Continued) <br /> • County Commissioners' compensation includes eligibility to continue to <br /> participate in the County health insurance at term end as provided below: <br /> o If the County Commissioner has served less than two full terms in office <br /> (less than eight years), the Commissioner may participate by paying the <br /> full cost of such coverage. (If the Commissioner is age 65 or older, <br /> Medicare becomes the primary insurer and group health insurance ends.) <br /> o If the County Commissioner has served two or more full terms in office <br /> (eight years or more), the County makes the same contribution for health <br /> insurance coverage that it makes for an employee who retires from <br /> Orange County after 10 years service as a permanent employee.
