A better way to get covered
Affordable, quality healthcare for Oregon’s long-term care workers
Working together for you
In a first-of-its-kind partnership, responsible long-term care employers and SEIU Local 503 have teamed up to provide affordable healthcare to some of Oregon’s most essential workers. The Essential Worker Healthcare Trust’s plan is designed with the help of long-term care workers to provide the care you and your family need.
Benefits Overview
This video provides an overview of EWHT benefits at a glance, including costs to see a doctor or to fill a prescription. It also covers who is eligible and the required paperwork to enroll your dependents. Not sure who to contact if you have an issue? We go over that in the video as well.
Have you verified the dependents on your plan?
You have 90 days to submit dependent verification after your employer reports your dependent’s enrollment to EWHT.
If we don’t receive the required verification documents for dependents on your plan, their eligibility for EWHT benefits will end. You may also receive bills for their previous medical and prescription costs.
Learn more about the dependent verification process.
