Anthem As Your Ally
Anthem Labor and Trust provides all our clients with the support needed to ensure they have coverage with the richest benefits at an affordable price.
Our breadth of experience with Taft-Hartley and multiemployer funds allows us to provide a better future for you and your workers.
We lead the way in providing customized solutions that conserve your fund money while improving your members' engagement in their health and well-being.
We Understand Your Needs
The labor industry is different than it was 20 years ago and so is healthcare. As costs continue to rise, and your fund's business becomes more complex, we remain committed to helping you find the most cost effective solutions while preserving rich benefits that many union members are accustomed to.
Now, more than ever, it's important that you have a partner who understands the challenges you're facing. We can provide a breadth of options to meet your fund's needs and control your costs -- without sacrificing quality of care.
We are proudly serving 2.1 million+ unionized workers, retirees, and their families* Our plans have access to 95% of doctors and 96% of hospitals nationwide. Our coverage offers peace of mind to multiple generations of hard-working Americans.

Your members' health is our first priority. That's one of the reasons why Anthem has put so much emphasis on finding unique ways to partner with our providers. Working together, we ensure your members with emergent and/or chronic conditions get the care they need when they need it.
With more than 75 years of serving organized labor, we're loyal, dedicated, and our labor commitment has never been stronger. Our associates have long-term experience with labor and many of us grew up with personal roots in labor.
We continue to listen to labor's concerns and direct our product development resources to address those concerns through innovative solutions.
Partnerships Focused on Value
We believe that cost-effective healthcare begins with strong partnerships. By collaborating with labor unions and trusted care providers, we ensure that your workers receive the quality care they deserve.
High-Quality Care Focused on Affordability
At Anthem, we put quality and affordability at the forefront of healthcare for our members. In addition to negotiating competitive network rates, our value-based care (VBC) contracts with care providers prioritize results, helping to ensure members receive excellent care without unnecessary costs. By paying care providers for the quality of health outcomes, we’re helping members get the best possible care, not just more services. This value-based care approach has resulted in:
How Digital Healthcare Delivers Cost-Effective Care
Anthem health plans include virtual care options that connect your members to care when they need it. Our SydneySM Health app provides convenient access to primary care doctors, therapists, and 24/7 care at low or no additional cost. Plus, members can fill prescriptions through the app, helping ensure they continue regular medications.
Virtual preventive care visits through the app are especially helpful for members who need to manage chronic conditions such as asthma, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes, leading to better health, fewer missed days, and improved productivity — all while saving money.
Savings With Integrated Benefits
Combining your Anthem benefits helps protect your members’ whole health while balancing costs. Anthem Whole Health ConnectionR provides a more complete picture of a member’s health by connecting data across medical, pharmacy, behavioral health, dental, vision, and supplemental benefits. Integrating benefits this way helps to coordinate care, close gaps in care, and cut down on costs — which is why we offer medical premium discounts when you add Anthem dental, vision, or supplemental health benefits to your Anthem medical plan.
Offering supplemental benefits means you can provide more coverage without financial risk. That’s because they are voluntary options that let your members choose extra benefits at competitive rates, with little to no cost for you.
