BACK TO COLLEGE

Is your son or daughter back to college?

The Health Fund needs a letter from the College stating that your son or daughter is attending as a Full-Time Student in order to maintain eligibility on the Plan. The credit requirement for Full-Time status is 12 credits. Please have your son or daughter check with the College Registrar’s Office on how to obtain a letter confirming that he or she is enrolled as a Full-Time Student for the current semester. This letter is needed for the Fall Semester starting in August/September and again for the Spring Semester starting in January.

All Full-Time College Students over the age of 19 are eligible for their own ID Card from the Teamsters Local 671 Health Fund to keep with them when away at school. This ID Card entitles them to the benefits of the Plan. It is important for students to carry this card with them in case they need to obtain prescriptions or medical care.
