Reminder Re Changes in Health Plan: Don't Lose Your Health Coverage! Last fall, the Board of Trustees of the Equity-League Health Trust Fund approved several major changes to the Health Plan. These changes were made to safeguard the long-term viability of the Fund. The Board of Trustees faced these tough decisions due to the fact that deficits are still projected for the Health Fund in 2007 and 2008. They had resisted making this change as long as they could, but could not put it off any longer. The Trustees faced a very tough set of choices: reduce coverage, further tighten the Fund's eligibility rules, or require participant contributions for those covered by employment. They chose the latter because it is expected to have the least overall impact on members. Effective January 1, 2007, in order to commence OR continue Equity-League Health Coverage, you must make a $100 quarterly payment per this schedule:
To check the status of your current health coverage or determine your eligibility, call the Equity League Fund Office at 212.869.9380 or 800.344.5220 outside the NYC area, or by sending an e-mail to health@equityleague.org.
