Thank you for your support of our Value Added Benefits program for association business. After many years and market changes, it is now time to draw this program to a close. All other benefits are unaffected and remain in force.
Here are key dates and the timeline you need to know:
- October 1, 2023: New groups will no longer be enrolled in Value Added Benefits
- Q4 2023: Existing groups will be notified that Value Added Benefits will terminate
- February 1, 2024: Current Value Added Benefits will terminate
We will discontinue the option to quote Value Added Association programs in Producer Toolbox quoting tools. Any business submitted with Value Added Benefits effective 10/1/2023 and later will see their group returned.
Anthem continues to offer a full portfolio of life and disability (L&D) products. The financial protection these plans provide is important. Unlike the association life insurance benefits that were not commissionable, the full product portfolio is.
We encourage you to review life insurance needs with your clients and consider a minimum of a basic life benefit within the Guaranteed Issue limits. The Connect Team is happy to assist you as you explore options. Call 866-956-8602 or email Connect@anthem.com.
