Getting ready to retire? Start your planning to make it simple.

Before you begin collecting your pension, there are a few important steps to take:
✔️ Notify your employer of your retirement date
✔️ Call the Fund Office to schedule an appointment
✔️ Submit your application 30–180 days before benefits begin
✔️ Review your pension and annuity options

A little planning now can help you avoid delays and get the most out of your benefits. Learn more about planning for your retirement: www.mlbf.org/how-to-prepare-for-retirement

Your doctor just ordered an MRI. Now what??

Did you know MRI costs can be much lower if billed by an independent radiology center or doctor’s office instead of a hospital?

Scheduling your MRI at a lower-cost location can save you money on copays and coinsurance. View independent MRI locations available to you: https://www.mlbf.org/need-an-mri-heres-how-to-save-on-costs

Taking care of your mental health is essential to your overall health. Talking through some of life’s stressors with a therapist is one way to make sure those stressors don’t get the best of you.

Starting July 1, all of our behavioral health benefits are under BCBSMA. You can find a behavioral health provider through the MyBlue Find a Doctor tool: member.bluecrossma.com/fad

What are “banked hours," and why do they matter for your pension?

Your extra hours don’t disappear. They work for you.

If you go over 1,600 hours in a year, those hours are banked and can help protect your pension later.

If work slows down, those banked hours can help you still qualify for a pension credit.

That is built-in protection for your future.
