Aflac Insurance Available to Members at Union Rate

You’ve probably seen commercials featuring the funny talking Aflac duck, but do you know what the company is actually selling? Aflac is a supplemental insurance provider whose Plans pay benefits to policy holders if they are so unfortunate as to be injured at work or to be diagnosed with cancer.

If you become sick or are injured your daily expenses can mount up quickly. Aflac pays you cash for those costs that may not be covered by your major medical insurance.

And Aflac pays quickly. If a Policyholder submits a claim via Aflac SmartClaim® by 3pm they will receive benefits in just one day.

It is important to understand that Aflac is not a part of your regular insurance plan.

You must elect to enroll in an Aflac Plan.

If you elect to enroll in an Aflac Plan you must pay for that plan on a recurring basis.
