Your Health Benefits
When you read the statistics, it makes you realize how fortunate 1199SEIU members are to have some of the best health coverage in the nation.
Today, 47 million Americans are entirely uninsured. Only 59% of workers in the U.S. have health coverage through their employers, and almost all of those have co-pays, deductibles and premiums that can add up to thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket costs each year.
But your coverage is different. 1199SEIU members enjoy unparalleled health coverage without spending money out of your pocket before you can access your care - a benefit that is becoming rare for today’s working families.
1199SEIU members and retirees who are eligible for health benefits are covered through one of five benefit funds listed below. Each Fund has its own eligibility requirements and level of benefits.
Find out what benefits you are eligible for by using the Member Benefits Finder on the right-hand side of this page.
