AFLAC
NMAC has an agreement on behalf of all member churches with AFLAC offering participation in AFLAC’s supplemental insurance to all clergy, lay employees and their immediate family. Each individual church does not need to have their own plan in place because of this agreement. The agreement provides the necessary documentation for Section 125 of the IRS code allowing for a pre-tax payroll deduction. All clergy and lay employees (working 19 hours a week or more) within the Conference are offered the opportunity to participate.
