Health Plan Information

The C&MA Health Plan was self-administered by the Office of Employee Benefits from 1998 until August 2001. At that time, the Benefit Board determined to cease in-house claims processing and contracted with a third party administrator.

Self-Funded

The C&MA Health Plan is a self-funded insurance plan whereby the Plan pays the claims with its own funds. We have contracted with several vendors to administer the processing of claims. These vendors include Highmark Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Delta Dental, Superior Vision, and The Standard Life Insurance. Alliance Benefits then pays the claims processed through the vendor from the monthly premiums collected from Plan participants.

Multi-Employer

Alliance Benefits serves many different employers who participate in the C&MA Health Plan. These employers include the National Office, The Orchard Foundation, The Alliance Development Fund, Inc., Crown College, and hundreds of churches nationwide.
