Healthcare/Insurance

Reliant workers who are enrolled in the Aetna plan can continue their coverage uninterrupted while on furlough. However, there are some considerations to understand.

1. Deductible - When in the United States, there is a deductible applied to your plan. Please familiarize yourself with the details of the Aetna plan while in the United States.
2. In-network vs. Out-of-network - When in the United States, Aetna distinguishes between expenses incurred within the Aetna network and expenses incurred out of their network. Out-of-network expenses have a completely separate deductible and are covered at a lesser rate. Please check with your healthcare provider to determine if they are within the Aetna network before receiving treatment.
3. Long-term Stays - If you are in the United States for a full calendar year, without a clear plan to return overseas, Reliant may ask you to switch to the U.S. insurance plan. A missionary may move of their own choice at the end of the first calendar year in the US.
