Data Card

What is a Data Card?

The Data Card is a form that is required at least annually by the NECA-IBEW Welfare Trust Fund in order to process claims on behalf of you and your Dependents. The Data Card contains your information, your family's information, your Spouse's employment information, as well as information about any other insurance that you or a family member may have.
