HEALTH CARE BENEFITS


Benefits for Retirees

Health Care - Retirees 65 and older

The East Ohio Conference has contracted with United Health Care (UHC) to provide a Group Medicare Advantage Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Plan for health and prescription drug coverage. The plan is available to qualifying conference retirees and their spouses who are Medicare eligible, no longer working, and enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B.

The UnitedHealthcare® Group Medicare Advantage PPO plan is a Medicare Advantage plan that delivers all the benefits of Original Medicare (Parts A and B), includes prescription drug coverage (Part D)] and offers additional benefits and features. It is not a supplement plan and does not pay secondary to Medicare. All claims are submitted directly to UnitedHealthcare for payment, not Medicare.  Other plan highlights include:

  • NurseLineSM – You’re never alone. Registered nurses answer your call 24 hours a day.
  • Rewards for completing screenings and preventive care such as getting your annual wellness visit
  • Stretch, lift or jog your way to better health with SilverSneakers® classes at hundreds of gym locations.
  • Nearly all of the drugs covered by Medicare Part D
  • More than 65,000 pharmacies in the network including national and regional retail chains as well as independent neighborhood pharmacies.
  • UHC Customer Service at 1 (877) 714-0178 is available from 8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. local time, Monday - Friday.

EOC Retirement Webinar

Properly managing your health and wealth are keys to achieving wellness. While we hope you use available resources to improve your physical wellness, this workshop is designed to help you achieve financial wellness. You’ll start by learning to assess where you are today, financially, including cash flow, debt and net worth. Then, you will learn to use the financial planning process to accomplish your goals, know how to develop a plan to get on track for retirement, and learn how to use Wespath benefits to help achieve your financial goals.

EY: Social Security and Your Retirement

Social Security is an integral piece of your retirement income puzzle. Knowing how to maximize your benefit may be the difference between achieving your retirement goals and falling short. During the course of this workshop, we’ll explore how Social Security benefits are calculated, when you can collect benefits, identify family members who may be entitled to benefits, understand how benefits are taxed, and learn how to obtain projections of benefits. We’ll also look at Social
Security in the context of “retirement planning,” as we review a six-step process for achieving your retirement goals.

EY: Estate Planning

Planning for “the inevitable” is not a topic many of us want to face. However, after your passing, without proper planning your assets may not be distributed as you hoped, or perhaps assets will be tied up in the courts for months or years, and maybe your family will not be as financially secure as they would like. Estate planning is not just for the wealthy; there are actions everyone needs to take now to ensure their wishes are followed and loved ones are protected and remain financially secure. Over the course of this workshop we’ll discuss what an estate encompasses, the pros and cons of probate, the role of trusts, important estate documents, estate taxation, tools to reduce estate taxes, and the resources available to assist you.
