Saw that in the Online, but it was for Retire's.
You know since they received so much from the contract, they have to give a little back.

Are you serious?? The retirees have done nothing but take hit after hit since the veba started. Instead of wasting all of our money on useless causes they should be using it to fund the veba, the retirees should never have to take a hit much less over & over.

Thanks for the support guys. Just wish Bob King and Jimmy Settles felt that way about the retirees.

Yell retired 4 years ago thought we would at least hold on to what we had but thats not the case.Live in Bullitt County our water bill went up 70% tax 8% and now this along with losing cost of living.The ONLY reason we got screwed is because we not have a voice in the contract and can't vote which when it involves us we should. That should change active employees should get this change on the next contract beleive me retirment comes faster than you may think.

Per Jim Fisher, it is true. Unless we have a major surgery you really dont have insurance now. I realize ours is still alot better than most, but when we get nothing from the contract this stinks highly.

Anyone know if the part about even after you pay your deductable you still have to pay 10% of everything on top of the co pays? Just saw it so didnt ask Jim earlier. This is outrageous when they gave us nothing.

Per the highlights in OUR SO CALLED contract
In the area oðI health care benefts, when it seems like everyone in America is getting cuts inbenefts and paying higher co-pays and deductibles, we were able to maintain and improve on ourcurrent benefts.

Seems like blue cross is better than Humana, is that correct? I personally think that is the whole point here , force everyone to switch to bc/bs.. They was pushing hard after the contract. I guess I will be looking into it now.
