MPI Extends Health Coverage

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

We are pleased to report that the MPIPHP Board of Directors (BoD) have voted in favor of the proposal to extend eligibility for Active Participants in the Motion Picture Industry Health Plan (MPIHP) (excluding those on COBRA and those enrolled as Disabled) who are currently enrolled and whose Benefit Period ends on June 30, 2020 (this is the qualifying period that ends on April 25th), the MPIHP will provide a credit of up to 300 hours to continue their eligibility in the MPIHP for the Benefit Period of July 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020.

The actions taken by the Board of Directors (BoD) thus far, including this one, have all been designed to provide immediate and impactful relief to our members and their families.

The Directors will continue to focus their attention to those who are not included in this group. More data is expected soon from the health plan actuaries which will determine the impact of this crisis going forward and allow the BoD to make decisions based on that information to benefit all of our participants.

Stay safe and healthy.

In solidarity,

 
Tobey Bays

Anthony Pawluc
Secretary-Treasurer
