Board of Trustees Continues to Closely Monitor Impact of Evolving COVID-19 Crisis

To assist participants experiencing financial hardship in these unprecedented and challenging times, the Board of Trustees of the Directors Guild of America – Producer Pension and Health Plans has enacted several benefits changes, including the first-ever Supplemental Plan loan program, three months of premium-free COBRA for eligible participants and a deferral option for dependent premium payments due April 1, 2020.

This special issue of the Spotlight on Benefits newsletter includes details on the changes made thus far by the Board of Trustees, as well as additional resources for assistance and information. Should the Board of Trustees approve additional benefit changes or as legislation is enacted, updates will be communicated to you through the Plans’ website, email blasts and newsletter.

Be sure to visit our COVID-19 Resources and Updates page at www.dgaplans.org/coronavirus-resources-and-updates for up-to-date COVID-19-related benefits changes and resource information.

We hope that you and your family remain well and stay safe during these trying times.
