CHANGES TO YOUR HEALTHCARE!
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT CHANGES TO THE IUOE LOCAL 825 WELFARE FUND BENEFIT PROGRAM.
As of April 1, 2018, the Fund will be moving from MagnaCare to Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey. This will give you wide access to their medical health care provider network as well as claims administration services.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
The MagnaCare and Local 825 participating medical provider networks will no longer be available. However, you will gain a broad choice of qualified hospitals, physicians and other health care providers to meet your various health care needs through Horizon’s extensive PPO network.
