OSBA Insurance Trust Announces New Life insurance Program Partner

School districts employees regard life insurance coverage as one of the most important benefits they receive.  Yet finding responsibly priced employee benefits that are sensitive to the unique needs of schools can be challenging.

The OSBA Insurance Trust is pleased to announce that Assurant Employee Benefits is our new endorsed carrier for Life insurance benefits for member schools, effective November 1, 2007.  Recognized as a leader in the employee benefits market, Assurant Employee Benefits has many years of experience in dealing with school group entities. 

Insuring more than 220,000 school employees nationally, Assurant Employee Benefits has the depth and breadth of experience that the OSBA requires for the life insurance program.  In fact, they are the endorsed carrier of the life insurance program for our neighboring school board association in Pennsylvania and insure more than 260 schools there. 

Running a school district requires the full-time focus of those involved.  Many districts struggle to find the time to do the necessary research and screening of carriers to obtain high-quality, competitive employee benefits.  The life insurance plans available through the OSBA Insurance Trust are the result of collective buying power, offering member school districts rate stability and more flexible plans and underwriting than most districts could accomplish on their own.  Districts participating in the plan will also have access to dedicated claims personnel and personalized services through the plan administrator, School Claims Services, which is a subsidiary of the Pennsylvania School Boards Association. For more information on how Assurant Employee Benefits can offer you a competitive quote for your group life insurance and how our coverage’s will meet the needs of your district, call the program administer at 1-866-691-6290 or Janice Smith, OSBA Chief Financial Officer, at 1-800-OSBA.
