You have experience with a self-funded plan, the UFT Dental plan is a self-funded plan administered by Cigna. What did they do to save money, they kept the reimbursement rate so low that dentists dropped out. How do you get a 10% savings when health care inflation is going up; by paying your providers less than the usual, customary and reasonable rates. That is their plan.

Voting NO places our health care into Adams hands, a mayoral candidate we did not endorse, our colleagues have one plan, threatening to strike, planning to strike and going on strike.

It’s reckless.

Remember the opposition caucuses supported Medicare For All, run by a 30 member board it trustees selected by the governor and the electeds, and we would pay for it through a graduated health tax, how much? To be determined by the trustees.

Vote YES, as we move deeper into Trumpland it’s critical that we lockdown our healthcare, not going on strike

Can you come up with a response to the real concerns being raised by people instead of chastising or being dismissive. Where are the 1 billion savings in perpetuity coming from??
