The UFA mailed a package last week to each active member's residence with enrollment change cards and additional information explaining the reduced rates and other improvements. Members previously not enrolled may enroll with no medical required.
Currently enrolled members may move up ONE level with no medical required. Members previously denied coverage can join during the new open enrollment period (no medical required-if increasing up only one level-i.e., increasing from $100k to $200k). Open enrollment begins July 1 and ends August 31.
However, please note the following correction to 65-2 #34 of 2010: Spouses who were previously denied must still submit medical documentation, which is subject to approval, in order to become eligible under the plan.
The UFA renegotiated the costs of its Group Life Insurance program, lowering premium costs at all levels for active members and adding a $500,000 coverage option. The rate reductions will kick in September 1.
If you have any questions, please contact Maria Zingone, the UFA Group Life Insurance Administrator, at 212-683-4723, ext. 5903.
Fraternally,
Stephen J. Cassidy
President
