MVP Health seeks another rate hike after 24 percent rise
MVP Health Plan filed with the New York Insurance Department for a 14 percent increase to cover rising prescription drug costs. The Schenectady based HMO serves 68,800 Central New York members and faces higher drug costs driven by ads and new medications. If approved, monthly premiums would rise from 319.13 for prescription coverage to 331.27, and a family plan from 47.81 to 54.54. The request follows a 23 percent rise granted last year after a 53 percent request. MVP attributes increased costs to drug pricing, advertising influence, and rising utilization across its more than 400,000 members in 26 New York counties and Vermont.

New Venture Gear marks decade of growth and joint venture strength
Dennis Sweeney reflects on ten years since New Venture Gear formed from Chrysler and General Motors. The plant in DeWitt employs nearly 4,000, with 5,500 total and annual sales rising from 550 million in 1990 toward 15 billion this year. The firm, a leader in transfer cases and drivetrain components, expanded with a 95 million engineering center in 1994 and a 200 million expansion, plus a planned German plant. It counts DaimlerChrysler GM Ford VW and Meritor among customers as it pursues global growth while contractual protections limit ownership changes.
