[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1077242, member: 12570"] Our H&W fund put co-pays in place a few years ago---our healthcare costs have gone down dramatically. The co-pay for a doctor's office visit is $10 and is $100 for a visit to the ER. While $10 is not likely to sway anyone $100 may make you think twice as to whether your condition warrants a visit to the ER or can wait until you can get in to see your doctor. Our two most recent retirees both made it to retirement in fairly good shape. One does need to have knee surgery, which will be covered by comp, but are both active and healthy. [/QUOTE]
