Legacy Augusta Retirement Plans:
The Path Forward
We're making important updates to several Legacy Augusta Retirement Plans. Following a thorough review, we're discontinuing certain Legacy Augusta Retirement Plans that were assumed as part of the August 2023 acquisition of Augusta University-affiliated organizations. These plans were already frozen at the time of acquisition and were no longer actively supporting ongoing retirement savings.

The most important thing to know: you keep the retirement benefits you’ve already earned. These updates will:
- Make it easier to understand and manage your retirement benefits — fewer plans to manage.
- Ensure your benefits remain protected — any balance you’ve already earned remains yours, along with your rights under your plan. All funds are vested as of the discontinued date.
- Allow Wellstar to provide more modern, flexible benefits that better align with your needs and are eligible for Employer contributions.
We are committed to keeping you informed throughout this process. Please select the plan you participate in above to learn more about what’s changing and any actions you may need to take. If you participate in more than one affected plan, be sure to review the details for each one carefully, as options, required actions and deadlines may vary.
