Announcing the New IAM Group Medicare Plan

///This post originally appeared on GOIAM.ORG

The IAM has worked for months to negotiate a new Group Medicare plan for Medicare-eligible retirees, spouses, surviving spouses and Medicare-eligible dependents.

We are excited to announce a new partnership with Employee Benefit Systems and TLC Insurance Group. This plan can help serve the Medicare needs for our Medicare-eligible retirees, their spouses, and surviving spouses. This new best-in-class IAM Group Medicare Advantage plan, offered through Humana, is rich in benefits.

Visit iam4.me/iamhumana for more information. Here are some of the benefits that IAM retirees are so excited about:

Available in all 50 states, plus Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia;
National Passive Group Medicare PPO Plan that allows members to use the doctor and hospital of their choice nationally;
In network and out of network benefits are identical;
Robust Prescription Group Plan included;
Low out of pocket maximum;
No deductibles on the IAMAW Group plan;
Low copays! Primary Care Physician – $0 copay Specialist – $30 copay

For current IAMAW Medicare-eligible retirees/spouses/surviving spouses, look for marketing and communications from the IAM this week. The IAM announcement letter will be followed by a group enrollment packet with details on the new group plan. Inside, there will be an exclusive toll free phone number (1-800-833-2411 – Humana Enrollment Department) to call in for questions and enrollment assistance.

Retiree participation is not mandatory. Enrollment into the plan is by self-choice. However, we highly suggest that all retirees compare the benefits of this new IAM Group Medicare plan, with their current coverage, prior to making any decision on their 2021 Medicare healthcare options.
