News You Can Use

The year is off to a promising start at the Church Pension Group (CPG). As we saw in 2025, new initiatives can usher in positive change, but transitions can be hard. We are grateful to those of you who collaborated with us to help the people we serve embrace the shifts.

Review the changes below and resolve to take advantage of those that matter to you:

Online Access to Health Benefits

Teladoc Health

Members and their adult dependents whose plans use the Anthem and Cigna networks have access to no-cost, round-the-clock virtual visits with physical and mental health physicians and nurse practitioners via this telemedicine platform. Average monthly registrations with Teladoc surpassed 100 in 2025.

International Employee Assistance Program (IEAP)

Active and retired clergy and their household members in 17 countries are eligible for IEAP benefits, including behavioral therapy, legal consultations, financial services, and more.

Hinge Health

Engagement with this digital musculoskeletal clinic—available to those enrolled in plans using the Anthem and Cigna networks—surpassed the 2,000-member mark last year, with more individuals than ever taking advantage of personalized programs to reduce joint and muscle pain.

Quantum Health

Members enrolled in plans that use the Anthem and Cigna networks can call Quantum for help understanding and maximizing their benefits, reviewing care options, resolving claims and billing errors, and much more. By the end of 2025, nearly 40% of members had created a Quantum account.

Processes

Benefits Bill Pay

Administrators and individuals who self-pay for benefits can view and pay CPG invoices through My Admin Portal and MyCPG Accounts. More than 7,000 transactions have been made online since Benefits Bill Pay was launched in October.

Church Insurance Companies (CIC)* self-service

CIC administrators can now access new and improved policy forms; view policy details and history; pay premiums; and submit, update, and track their claims online. Nearly 3,500 institutions are now set up with access to CIC self-service.

Programs

Fund for Special Assistance (FSA)

The FSA was established to relieve specific, extraordinary financial needs of eligible retired clergy in good standing in The Episcopal Church and their surviving spouses and dependents who are receiving benefits from certain plans sponsored by The Church Pension Fund. The program now offers an easier-to-submit application and a higher grant award limit. The grants awarded in 2025 surpassed the combined amount granted in the prior five years.

Website Features

cpg.org—We improved the search experience in our Learning Center and Administrators’ Resource Center to make it easier to find benefits information and educational resources, and we broadened the reach of cpg.org with translation and other accessibility tools. Look for these symbols:

Education

The Administrators’ Resource Center

A visual update provides a more intuitive experience for users, featuring quick links to eLearning courses and upcoming CPG events.

Church Publishing Incorporated

Online navigation features were improved to help visitors find print and electronic resources that foster a vibrant faith community.

The Learning Center

We gave this resource hub a spring cleaning, shifting the content of on-demand courses toward shorter modules that help individuals.

More Client Voices

New videos, such as the Why I Save series featuring clergy and lay employees, present opportunities to hear from your peers and learn how they engage with our products and services for their benefit.
