PEIA Plans Changes to Retiree Health Benefits
PEIA officials propose treating retirees more like active workers with deductibles and co payments. The finance board caps out of pocket costs at 500 dollars and offers free services after that for covered medical expenses. A MAPD program with Blue Cross or Aetna aims to curb costs as the program faces a large unfunded liability. Changes take effect July 1 2007 with benefi ciaries receiving detailed information.
