Critical Illness Insurance – Accident Insurance
Chart your course.
The National R&I Committee and the ALPA Pilot Welfare Benefit Plan (“Plan”) offer two products tailored especially for ALPA members. Critical Illness and Accident insurance are underwritten by ReliaStar Life Insurance Company.
Critical Illness Insurance
Critical Illness Insurance pays a lump-sum benefit if you are diagnosed with a covered disease or condition on or after your coverage effective date. (See the product brochure, certificate of coverage, and any applicable riders for a complete list of covered conditions, along with complete provisions, exclusions and limitations.) This money can be used however you like, including: expenses not covered by your medical plan, lost wages, child care, travel or any of your regular household expenses.
Critical Illness is a limited benefit policy. This is not health insurance and does not satisfy the requirement of minimum essential coverage under the Affordable Care Act.
Accident Insurance
Accident Insurance pays you benefits for specific injuries and events resulting from a covered accident on or after your coverage effective date. (See the product brochure, certificate of coverage, and any applicable riders for a complete list of covered conditions, along with complete provisions, exclusions and limitations.) This money can be used however you like, including: deductibles, child care, groceries or utilities.

Up to $400 in Wellness Benefits for your family
If you are covered by Critical Illness and/or Accident Insurance, you are also eligible for the Wellness Benefit. This provides an annual benefit payment if you complete an eligible health screening test. You may only receive a benefit payment once per year; even if you complete multiple health screening tests. This benefit is designed to encourage maintaining a healthy lifestyle by screening for a range of potential illnesses and diseases.
Covered members and spouses receive $100 each for completing a screening, and covered children may receive $50 each to a maximum of $200 for all children in one calendar year.

Then, rolling into your second year, the ALPA VEBA Trust splits the cost of this valuable coverage by 50% with you. Plus, optional dependent coverage is available for your spouse and children.
