The American Legion’s National Insurance Programs to Change

Periodically, The American Legion reviews its insurance programs to ensure that Legionnaires are offered the best possible coverage at competitive rates. Accordingly, The American Legion recently sought competitive bids for the brokerage and administrative service for all insurance plans offered by the national American Legion. After a comprehensive review of all bids, Gallagher Benefit Services was selected as the new broker effective June 1, 2008.

As the transition process began, a number of problems arose with the former broker and administrator. As part of the transition to the new broker, The American Legion must ensure that it has an accurate record of all insureds.

If you are insured under any of the following National Insurance Programs, you can help assist with the transition:

Coverage through ING Insurance
  • Modern Vets Life
  • Senior Term Life
  • Term Life
Coverage through Hartford Insurance
  • TRICARE Supplement Plan
  • Short Term Recovery
  • Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D)
  • Hospital Income
  • Travel Accident
Coverage through Union Fidelity
  • Birthday Life
You can help by doing any of the following:
  • Provide the following information (by fax, email or U.S. Postal Service as noted below)
    • Insureds Name
    • Member ID
    • Date of Birth
    • Type/Name of insurance policy
  • Call 1-888—233-1633
  • Email: mbrben@legion.org
  • Mail to Member Benefits/Insurance: 5745 Lee Rd., Indianapolis, IN 46216
  • Fax 1-317-860-3001; Attn: Member Benefits/Insurance
Thank you for your continued support and assistance in providing the information that we need in order to serve you better.
