Overview
MNA members enjoy access to discount goods and services through negotiated agreements with preferred vendors. Discount goods and services enable members to realize considerable savings on their administrative costs, and use more of their annual budget to carry out their charitable purposes providing programs and services to their clientele.

Major Medical Health Insurance Program

The MNA Health Plan offers seven options. Each employer group will be initially rated on their own age demographic and health risk to determine the premium rate for that group. Going forward, risk - and therefore rate increases - will be shared across the entire pool of users - currently at 1000 lives. Any 501(c)(3) organization that is a member of MNA is eligible for our health insurance plan.

As an association plan, we now have a "plan year" that starts each July. Rates are available for employee only, employee plus spouse, employee + family and employee + child(ren). Some Plans are also available to groups with one eligible employee. In addition to health and prescription drug benefits, each plan also includes the following enhancements:

• 100% paid annual Vision exam benefit for all enrolled family members on the health plan
• $5,000 Life and AD&D insurance for the insured.
• 24/7 toll-free Health information hotline to registered nurses who can help you make the best, most informed choice for your healthcare needs

To learn more about our health insurance plan, visit our FAQ, or contact Mountain West Benefits - they can refer you to a qualified agent that can get you a quote. MNA employees cannot provide quotes for health insurance. Download BCBS application.
