New benefit for UDW members: Aflac insurance coverage!

May 3, 2021

Fellow IHSS and child care providers,

I am excited to announce that we are working with Aflac to offer UDW members three types of low-cost supplemental insurance: Accident, Critical Illness and Hospital Indemnity insurance. These benefits pay cash directly to you or your beneficiary when you or a covered family member is hurt, seriously ill or hospitalized.

What does this benefit mean for UDW members? Supplemental insurance is additional coverage that you can use to help with the out-of-pocket expenses that come up when you are injured or sick.

Want to find out more?

Call (855) 615-5387 (English & Spanish) or (855) 385-2178 (Vietnamese) to speak to an Aflac Benefits Counselor to learn more.

Aflac coverage can help us when we need it most. I am proud of all my union brothers and sisters who helped make this new benefit possible. This is a great example of what we can win when we build our strength as a union!

In solidarity,

Editha Adams

IHSS Provider and UDW Statewide President
