We are pleased to inform you that Open Enrollment has begun for your GCA BLET Group Short Term Disability, Long Term Disability and Life Insurance plan underwritten by Prudential. Only members not currently participating in any of the coverages or members new to the BLET are eligible to enroll at this time. This Open Enrollment will go through June 28, 2022, and coverage will be effective on July 1, 2022.
Members who are currently enrolled in the plan will have a separate open enrollment beginning in July to make changes to their coverages or add new coverages.
Members who are not currently enrolled or who are new to the BLET will have the following options:
Short-Term Disability (24/7 coverage)
- Weekly benefit options paid tax free to members for up to 1 year.
- Benefits can be stacked with other benefits such as RRB sickness benefits.
Long-Term Disability (24/7 coverage)
- Tax free benefits that start paying after 1 year (when Short Term Disability ends).
- Members can protect their income for up to either 2 years or 5 years.
- These benefits can help fill the gaps between when a member files for occupational disability and when RRB approves and starts paying Long Term benefits to the member.
Life Insurance (24/7 coverage)
- Includes an equal amount of Accidental Death and Dismemberment.
- Coverage is guaranteed approved – no medical questions asked!
- Coverage available for spouse and children
We have provided a poster that can be printed and posted in terminals and crew rooms.
All eligible members (those not currently enrolled) have been mailed an enrollment packet outlining their options. Members can visit www.bletinsurance.com to enroll online or get more information. As always, members can contact the Cornerstone Office at 224-770-5307 to learn more and enroll over the phone.
To take advantage of this enrollment opportunity, members need to enroll by June 28, 2022.
We would appreciate you forwarding this to your members to help spread the word. If you or any of your members have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for your continued support!
Sincerely,
Peter C. Gilbertson
