ARTA Benefits
Alberta Retired Teachers ' Association

ARTA Benefits — Mobile App

Our free mobile app , also available January 1 , 2021 , is optimized for both phone and tablet ( iOS and Android ) and will help you quickly and easily access your health and dental benefits information . You can check your drug coverage , find a nearby health provider , submit a claim , access your electronic ID card , and more .
You will first need to register for MyARTA ( myarta . net ) to obtain your user ID and password , which also apply to the app . Then simply download “ ARTA Benefits ” from the app store on your device to get started .

Boom Group — Mobile App

The ARTA discount program also has a mobile app , available now . You will first need to register for the Boom program using the Boom card you received in the mail in September 2019 or with your membership card if you joined ARTA in the past year . Download the app ( iOS and Android ) by searching for “ Boom Group ” in the app store .
These new tools will make your member experience much better — members who submit claims online will be able to monitor their status and get reimbursed faster than by paper claim . The ARTA staff is in the final stages of testing these new systems and we look forward to launching them to our membership on January 1 — happy new year , indeed !
