Billing and Eligibility
Vimly Benefit Solutions (the “Trust Office”) manages member enrollment, eligibility, and monthly billing for Participating Groups. Vimly offers a proprietary online portal (SIMON) which gives group administrators the ability to manage their own billing and eligibility via the portal.
Interested in access to SIMON? Contact the Trust Office by email or call (206) 859-2678.
If your organization already has an enrollment platform that you would like to continue utilizing, file sharing arrangements may also be available for a nominal fee.
Vimly also manages administration of COBRA and retiree plans. They facilitate direct billing to members who elect to continue coverage through the IAFF HWT on a self-pay basis, or can work with individual employers to accommodate unique billing arrangements.
Initial Enrollment Process
The IAFF Health & Wellness Trust works hard to make your transition as smooth as possible. We will provide an Enrollment Spreadsheet for you to use for the initial enrollment which must include employee and dependent demographics, as well as plan elections. This can be submitted at any point after the completion of a Group Master Application.
The Trust Consultant will work closely with you and the Local during this process to help educate members on what to expect during the transition to the Trust plans.
Please contact the Trust Consultant at DiMartino Associates for more information about the initial enrollment process or call (206) 623-2430.
Annual Renewals
The IAFF Health & Wellness Trust generally renews every year in January, though we can accommodate groups that desire uncommon renewal arrangements on an off-calendar year basis.
The Trust Consultant, works closely with the Trust Office to produce Open Enrollment materials and renewal documentation. Expect to receive notification of the Trust renewal at least 60 days prior to your renewal date.
Please contact the Trust Consultant for more information about the renewal process or call (206) 623-2430.
