[QUOTE="804brown, post: 848632, member: 29553"] Incredible, you question the surpluses, etc but not one of you got up to question[B] any [/B]of it!! The surpluses are there because they changed over to Blue Cross/Blue Shield. We should be celebrating this news. The emergency room abuses have probably stopped. The members are finally acting responsible and not going to the emergency room for flu shots and cases of diarrhea. Are the retirees paying more?? Yes. Are we paying more for copays and drugs, etc?? Yes. But if those needed changes were not make, our plan would be in deficit as of this June!!! Ok, we had to suck it up a bit but the plan is good for a few years until they negotiate with UPS again in 2013. Your boys in 2007 [B]did not negotiate enough $$[/B] for the health fund.This problem Row B had to deal with was handed to them by Howie and co!! You could blame the sad boys sitting in the back of the membership meeting for all this!! [/QUOTE]
