Pay Health Premiums More Easily with Automatic Pension Deduction

Whether you spend your retirement at leisure or on the go, paying your Health Plan premiums through automatic pension deduction goes perfectly with your lifestyle.

If you are receiving a monthly benefit from the Directors Guild of America-Producer Basic Plan and are on Certified Retiree coverage, you can make convenient, recurring premium payments by having your premiums automatically deducted from your monthly pension benefit. As long as your pension benefit covers your premium amount, you can rest assured that your payment will be made timely with no further action from you.

To enroll in automatic pension deduction, you must complete and return the Pension Deduction Authorization Form available at www.dgaplans.org/forms/health/. If your completed form is received by the 15th of the month, pension deduction will begin the following month. Deductions will equal the amount of your monthly Certified Retiree premium. This option is not available for dependent premium payments.
