While the Funds’ offices are currently closed during the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak, we are providing essential services with limited staffing. You can request a form, change your address and more by visiting My Account. If you need assistance with your benefits, please contact your Outreach Coordinator and he or she will get back to you as soon as possible. Your Coordinator’s contact information is available on the bulletin board at your worksite and in the Resources section.
Please note that while we are monitoring our main Member Services line at (646) 473-9200, it should be used for urgent matters only and you will experience long wait times to speak to a Service Representative. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time and we remain committed to serving your needs.
The Funds Provider Relations Call Center is currently operating under our Essential Servicing Plan due to protocols surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19).
During this time, you may experience a longer than usual wait time to reach a Service Representative.
