Letter of Understanding #18

The benefit changes listed in Letter of Understanding #18 RE: Prepaid Benefits are effective on the first day of the month following 90 days from the date of ratification – this would be August 1, 2025.
 
These include changes to coverage for massage therapy and diabetic supplies.
 
As part of the new Provincial Collective Agreement, AHS, Recovery Alberta, Primary Care Alberta and Covenant Health have agreed to a 90-day open period for enrolment for employees who have previously opted to not enrol in the benefit program.
 
Most employers are still confirming their process and timelines for the open period. UNA will share more information when the union receives it.

This round of negotiations was about Respect, Retention and Recruitment,” said UNA President Heather Smith. “When UNA members voted against ratifying a settlement that had been recommended by a Mediator last October, they spoke clearly, and we listened. The result was the agreement ratified yesterday.”

Smith described the new agreement – which retroactively takes effect from March 31, 2024, and will expire on April 1, 2028 – as “a meaningful step toward the recognition and respect Alberta’s nurses deserve and have been fighting for.”
