Employee Benefits
Have you called Aetna about a claim and still need some assistance?   Do you need to change your beneficiaries? Thinking of retirement? Need help completing claim forms?

If you said yes to any of these questions contact a member of our benefits team for assistance. Jennifer Laufenberg can assist you with retirement, short- or long-term disability questions, life insurance claims, beneficiary designations and Aetna claim questions. You should also contact Jennifer regarding mid-year changes in your family status due to a qualifying event that may require or allow a change in your health insurance coverage, such as adding or deleting dependents. 

Do you have questions regarding FMLA?
All FMLA inquiries should go to Kathy Dorsey.
