In an effort to provide FirstLight Health System employees the best benefits possible, beginning January 1, 2016, FirstLight will be changing the life and long term disability vendor to UNUM. This does include any voluntary benefits you may currently have with Assurant. You do not have to complete any paperwork for this change, as everything was transferred from Assurant to UNUM. If you want to make any changes, you will need to fill out some paperwork.
UNUM is offering onsite education to employees regarding life, long term disability and voluntary life insurance on Monday, November 9th in FirstLight Hospital Meeting Room 1 at the times listed below:
7:30 a.m.
8:30 a.m.

Employees who would like to listen into these meetings offsite can call (320) 225-3958. The meeting should last about ½ hour.
The UNUM PowerPoint presentation and applications will be posted on the intranet by Friday, November 6th.
*To qualify for life and long term disability an employee must have core hours of 30+ per pay period.
Application forms for voluntary life insurance are due back to Human Resources by Friday, December 4th. If you have any questions regarding open enrollment or the life and long term disability policies please feel free to contact Human Resources at (320) 225-3611.
