 Need information?

Our new partners at BCBS have created a website for City of Newton Non-Medicare Eligible Retires. You can access this website by clicking here. On this website is a link/document called an “E-KIT.” The E-KIT includes plan summaries and other helpful resources such as information relating to the newly added telehealth benefit through Well Connection.

We hope that you find this information helpful.  We welcome you to access all these resources or contact your HR Benefits Team for additional support.  We are here for you!
