A hospital employee is concerned that his 457 account balance may be jeopardized if the hospital becomes insolvent. He is considering rolling it over to a 403(b) he has.  He is age 70.5. Would it only depend on if the 403(b) allows for 457 rollovers?

457 plans for tax-exempt (non-governmental) employers are non-qualified plans and, as such, are subject to the claims of creditors (as is his concern) and are not afforded favorable tax treatment upon distribution (distributions are taxed as ordinary income, and you cannot roll over to anything except possibly another NQ 457(b) plan of another tax-exempt entity if such plan allows).

What kind of 457 is it?
