The Fund Office is pleased to announce that the winner of our “Send Us Your Email” drawing for a customized Local No. One Ipod Shuffle is David Carr, and the winners of the “Health Assessment Survey” drawings are Marc Schmittroth, John Tamerlani, and Jesse Ortiz.

Everyone who took the Health Assessment Survey received a CIGNA T-shirt.  We still have a supply of T-shirts and will continue sending them to participants who take the survey through the end of June. 

To take part in the survey, please go to MyCIGNA.com. If you have not already registered, click the blue “Register” button, otherwise sign-in using your User Name and Password. Next click on the “MY HEALTH” tab at the top of the page, and then click on the “my health assessment” under the “Health Management Resources” section. If you haven’t yet registered for the Health and Wellness Center, you will be asked to complete a brief sign-up process. Otherwise you will be asked to sign-in.

Preventable illness makes up 70% or more of the total cost of health care. If our Welfare Fund participants start making healthier lifestyle choices, that should translate into lower Welfare Fund expenses. As health care costs continue to sky-rocket, we need to do everything we can to reduce expenses to try to avoid the necessity of future benefit cuts or increases to self-pay premiums. You are a partner in this Fund, and if as a group we can live healthier, we will also help protect our future health benefits.

So please join us in this Health Assessment initiative. It is a great opportunity to start the process of taking control of your health – for your sake, and for the sake of your family. If you have any questions about this initiative, please give us a call at the Fund Office and we will be more than happy to assist you in any way that we can: (212)247-5225.
