Healthcare
Local 71 building trades members enjoy zero premium, zero deductible health insurance coverage with low co-pays. It is is available to all members, as well as their spouses and dependent children at no additional cost.
Sheet Metal Workers’ Local 71 is self funded for our medical insurance. We currently utilize the services of Nova Healthcare Administrators to administer our medical and dental claims, and OptumRx to process our prescription claims.

By logging into these sites you can perform various actions such as reviewing your claims, searching for in-network providers, and ordering prescriptions. We recommend that you periodically review this information to ensure that all your claims are processed correctly.
