The NHS scheme provides benefits to your dependents in the event of your death following retirement. The benefits payable depend on your circumstances at the time of your death and on your service in the scheme.
One-Time Death Benefit: You may receive a one time payment of $255 when a family member dies, depending on your relationship to them and how long they have worked. Generally, only surviving spouses and children of deceased workers qualify for the one-time death benefit. In addition, the deceased family member must have worked long enough to be insured under Social Security, but it doesnât matter if they were already collecting Social Security or not.
