What is a MPI health plan?
- New Guild members become eligible for the MPI Health Plans once they complete 600 hours in a Qualifying Period at signatory studios. Once you have qualified for benefits, there is a two-month processing period while MPI audits your hours to confirm eligibility.
- When members become eligible for their MPI plans they can choose between three different plan options— a Preferred Plan Organization (or PPO) administered through Anthem Blue Cross and two Health Maintenance Organization (or HMO) Plans provided by Health Net and Kaiser Permanente.
- If you aren’t happy with the health plan you chose, you have two options. Those enrolled in an HMO can switch to the Anthem Blue Cross PPO at any time during the year.
- If you are enrolled in the Anthem Blue Cross PPO plan, you MUST get your annual physical completed at an UCLA-MPTF Health Center. If you get your annual physical done by a general physician, who does not practice at one of the Health Centers, you risk having to pay out of pocket.
