RE: City Of Schofield ACCOUNT # 1561800-0106-00662A
Dear Rick:
Our records indicate that the most recent collective bargaining agreement between the City Of Schofield and Local Union 662 provided for Health and Welfare Plan C6 benefits, excluding retiree coverage. The new required contribution rate is as follows:
Plan C6
Effective Date Per Employee Per Week
Current Rate $355.30
12/31/2017 $365.30
Also be advised that the waiting periods for new hires must be in accordance with Question and Answer #1 of Special Bulletin 2013-1 (attached). Collective Bargaining Agreements ratified on or after July 1, 2013 will not be accepted unless the waiting period under the terms of the agreement is no more than thirty (30) calendar days unless the Board of Trustees explicitly consents in writing to a longer period.
Lastly, Fund policy requires that health and welfare contributions be submitted on all employees covered by the agreement for all compensated periods, including full-time and non full-time employees after they have been on the Employer’s payroll for no longer than 30 calendar days.
However, if your agreement has historically excluded or limited health contributions on non full-time employees, the agreement may or may not be in compliance with the Fund’s policies.

GRANDFATHERED PLAN NOTICE
This group health plan believes this plan is a “grandfathered health plan” under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (the Affordable Care Act). As permitted by the Affordable Care Act, a grandfathered health plan can preserve certain basic health coverage that was already in effect when that law was enacted. Being a grandfathered health plan means that your plan may not include certain consumer protections of the Affordable Care Act that apply to other plans, for example, the requirement for the provision of preventive health services without any cost sharing. However, grandfathered health plans must comply with certain other consumer protections in the Affordable Care Act, for example, the elimination of lifetime limits on benefits.
Questions regarding which protections apply and which protections do not apply to a grandfathered health plan and what might cause a plan to change from grandfathered health plan status can be directed to the plan administrator at Research and Correspondence Department, Central States, Southeast and Southwest Areas Health and Welfare Fund, 9377 West Higgins Road, Rosemont, IL 60018-4938 or call Toll-Free 1-800-323-5000. You may also contact the Employee Benefits Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor at 1–866–444–3272 or www.dol.gov/ebsa/healthreform. This website has a table summarizing which protections do and do not apply to grandfathered health plans.
Upon execution of the renewal agreement, please send the agreement to: Central States Health Fund, 9377 W. Higgins Road, Rosemont, IL 60018, Attn: Contract Department
If there are any questions, please let me know. I can be reached at (847)939-2182 or on my mobile at (312) 721-4272.
