About Us

New York Labor Health Care Alliance
Current Membership 75 funds and >200,000 lives

The Alliance negotiates and signs agreements with providers on behalf of member funds, working to ensure that every participating fund gains access to the best possible terms. While membership does not obligate funds to enter into Alliance-negotiated agreements, participation by the maximum number of funds is our goal — and the key to our collective success.

The Democratic Process governs all decisions made by Alliance members. Each member fund holds one vote on the Board of Directors through a designated voting representative, and Alliance By-Laws are designed to preserve the full autonomy and independence of every member fund.

Collective Strength - Uniting labor health benefit funds statewide gives unions the tools to leverage numerical strength for meaningful discounts and market advantages.

Commitment to Growth - Expanding membership, providers, and services is our guiding principle — always in service of delivering lower health care costs for members, retirees, and their families.

Democratic Governance - One fund, one vote. Every member fund retains its autonomy while contributing to the Alliance's shared mission and direction.

In an ever-escalating and out-of-control benefit cost environment, the Alliance's ultimate purpose is clear: delivering lower health care costs for fellow members, retirees, and their families. This is the reason every Union fund in New York should belong to the Alliance.

Join Now - An initial one-time affiliation fee of $1,000 and annual dues of $750 enables your Union health benefit fund to take full advantage of everything the Alliance offers — now and in the future.

 

"United We Stand!" — It is not just a time-honored phrase. It is a call to action to ensure Organized Labor's ability to continue providing the quality levels of health benefits our hard-working members deserve.
