HEALTH BENEFITS
The health benefits unit within the FDNY Office of
Personnel provides coordination of all health coverage
benefits for FDNY employees and their families. You
may call if you have any questions about the specific
coverage you and your family have (Blue Cross, GHI,
HIP Prime HMO, Aetna, Cigna, Vytra,
etc.), the type and extent of health coverage, who is
the provider of your medical services (union versus
FDNY \ City of New York).
Basically, FDNY \ City of New York health benefits
cover doctor and hospital visits; Union benefits cover
dental, prescription, and vision. Full time staff is
available at FDNY Headquarters at 9 MetroTech Center,
Brooklyn and may be called Monday to Friday 9:00 am
to 5:00 p.m.
FUNERAL NOTIFICATIONS
Upon notification by FDNY, the family should contact
the member's fire company for assistance. Each company
can and will be an invaluable resource for the family
and will help make all arrangements with the Department.
Let the company know any requests you may have. The
Department Ceremonial Unit will provide support for
all Departmental arrangements.
Obviously, we have never had to face this kind of tragedy
before and our resources are going to be limited. We've
reached out to other departments and volunteer companies
to help us and will make sure each member's service
is dignified and appropriate. We also plan to have a
memorial service some time in the future in which all
members and their families will be honored.
