Retirees, Please Tune Out the Naysayers on our Health Benefits

Since our new benefits went into effect on Jan. 1, 2024 as a result of the contract negotiated by Local 100 in 2023, there’s been quite a bit of misinformation about the plans, mainly on social media. The Retirees Association established a special Medical Concierge Desk to answer any questions that Medicare eligible retirees have about their coverage. At the start of this year, the calls were coming in fast and furious, but now they are down to just a few a day. That’s a good sign that most of us are now up to date on what’s happening. Attached is a flier that hopefully addresses any remaining concerns.
