Testimonials

"Rochester Laborers Local 435 is a proud member of the NYLHCA. Our funds have benefited from the professional relationships we have established with vendors and other fund administrators/trustees. Through collective negotiating power, our Funds have saved money by utilizing NYLHCA endorsed vendors like National Vision Administrators (NVA) and Optum RX. Also, we are exposed to many vendors and how their products can benefit our funds, not just from a savings standpoint but also through the enrichment of our membership’s Benefit Portfolio, which, in turn, enriches our members’ lives. Further, our relationships with other Funds Administrators and Trustees have proven to be a precious tool. I cannot say enough about the power of the NYLHCA’s networking opportunities. We are proud to continue our collaboration with the NYLHCA."

"As many of you already know, the Laborers' Local 157 Health Fund has continued to provide some of the best heath care benefits in the state.  All for a minimal employer contribution rate.  We have been able to achieve this not just through the hard work of our membership and service providers but with the help of the NYLHCA. We have taken advantage of the NYLHCA's collective negotiating power.  Many of our current vendor contracts reflect the savings.  I myself have been able to learn a lot by using the other administrators in the NYLHCA to establish best practices.  The endorsed fiduciary insurance product through the endorsed J.A. Mariano Agency also saves our Pension, Annuity and Training Funds a great deal of money."
