Medical Insurance Coverage for those that may lose it due to RIF or elimination of Retiree Medical Benefits

 

As an alternative to the services provided by American Airlines, the TWU and Union Benefit Planners (UBP) wanted to

provide the members with a union sponsored option for medical coverage. The TWU and UBP have created a process for selecting affordable medical alternatives for those Members that may lose their medical insurance either because of a RIF or the elimination of the Retiree Medical Benefits.
We have made available a website www.twubenefits.com with which each individual can shop and compare different medical insurance plans and choose one that fits their specific needs. As part of this service, there will also be a “Care Advocate” available to everyone using the service that’ll be there with you to assure all your concerns and questions are addressed.

The members may call our Enroll Assist Line: 866-978-2032.
Weekdays 7A – 11P Central
Sat 9A-6P Central

Additional services for members with Union Sponsored Benefits:
You have the option of continuing TWU provided benefits including:

  • Term Life Insurance (must have continual coverage for 6 months to continue)
  • Accident Insurance
  • Critical Illness Insurance
  • Whole Life Insurance
