The above was confirmed to be true for me by a Business Rep. just a couple of days ago!

I would call Equity League Health Fund directly with that question.

It's all AEA needs from the Actor/SM. The Producer, however, submits a weekly Pension/Health report to AEA along with their check to cover P&H, and that report is used to calculate weeks.
