Employee Assistance Program
Sometimes you just need to talk to someone.
To help address your emotional, physical, family, and legal needs, the Medical Trust offers the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to clergy and lay members of our medical plans, their covered dependents and any other household members. This benefit provides immediate help, referrals, and resources. The plan covers telephone consultations and up to 10 face-to-face counseling sessions per issue at no member cost.
The Cigna EAP is a confidential 24-hour service that can help you access the resources you need if you or anyone within your household wants to talk to someone. It is offered at no charge to members, as part of the Medical Trust plans.
The trained professional EAP staff can provide:
- 24/7 phone access for behavioral health issues
- Referrals for in-person counseling
- Referrals to network lawyers for a free 30-minute legal consultation
- Financial services and referrals
- Tips for balancing work and family
- Assistance finding childcare and senior care
There are also online resources on such issues as:
- Emotional well-being and life events
- Family and caregiving
- Health and wellness
- Daily living
- Disaster Resource Center
