[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1197117, member: 42270"] Many of the FT'ers in the locals that voted down their supplements were in company plans and will receive the "enhanced" TeamCare benefits in order to encourage them to vote for ratification. Basically, there were many differences in coverage across the country; many FT'ers were/are covered by CS H&W, some FT'ers and some PT'ers were covered by locally run Taft-Hartley plans (I believe Local 177 and others were able to negotiate their own locally-run plans that are equal to/better than TeamCare), and most PT'ers and some FT'ers were in company plans. The main gripe UPS had was with retiree coverage under the company plans -- this is where you hear about the coverage for retirees (age 55 until they are eligible for Medicare) being only $50/month for a family (which the company believed was unsustainable) while retiree coverage under TeamCare is $200/$400 month.
