Fund’s medical benefits administrator changing to Aetna in 2027

Effective January 1, 2027, medical benefits for all Fund participants will be administered through Aetna, replacing Anthem BlueCross BlueShield as our medical benefits administrator. Aetna should already be a familiar name to Fund participants as Aetna currently administers the Fund's dental benefits and will continue doing so moving forward. Additional information on this upcoming change and instructions on verifying your providers' participation in Aetna's provider network can be found by clicking below.
