b. Such evidence of insurability will not be required of any person becoming a participant of an alternate benefit program upon transfer from the Teachers’ Pension and Annuity Fund, the Public Employees’ Retirement System, other State-administered retirement system or the Group Annuity Plan, if such system provided benefits of a similar nature and the transferring employee was covered by such benefits at the time of the transfer. If such transferring employee was not covered by such benefits at the time of the transfer, he may be allowed the benefits under the group policy or policies subject to the provisions of subsection a. of this section; provided, however, that any such participant must furnish satisfactory evidence of insurability under the provisions of subsection a. of this section, if he had been unable or failed to give such evidence as a member of the system from which he transferred.
