The PSGIP Trustees work diligently to ensure that
the plan runs smoothly. They act solely in the best interest of
the plan and its beneficiaries, in line with their mission
statement and the Trust Document.
Their activities include:
| |
establishing and
administering the fund; |
| |
entering into all necessary
contracts; |
| |
establishing and administering
reserve
funds; |
| |
appointing and monitoring
the performance of the administrator, consultants, insurance
carriers, etc.; |
|
| |
investing funds
and paying expenses; |
| |
communicating regularly and
openly with plan members and parties; |
| |
reviewing requests from parties
for additional expanded services; |
| |
making plan changes, where
allowed; and |
| |
increasing rates resulting
from plan experience. |
|
The Trustees cannot make plan changes that result
in material rate increases or add new benefits to the plan on a
cost-shared basis. Also, to increase or enhance benefits, the Trustees
require unanimous approval or direction from the parties.

Who
do I contact about coverage, to make changes or to claim accident
or death benefits?
Johnson
Incorporated
Johnson is your benefits resource and the plan administrator
of all your benefits. This means they:
| |
answer questions; |
| |
keep records; |
| |
determine eligibility for coverage;
and |
| |
make sure you receive all necessary
documents. |
They do not handle claims, except claims for accident
and death benefits, as well as claims under the Preferred Services
Home-Auto Plan.
When you call, be sure to specify the applicable policy
number:
| |
Life: 159879 (basic coverage),
159864 (optional coverage) |
| |
Accident: ABT102324 (basic
coverage), OKE102324 (optional coverage) |
Although Johnson is the plan administrator, Great-West

Insurance insures benefits in the event of a serious accidental
injury or accidental death.
