Putting Families and Civil Servants At Risk
While Waldrum rakes in millions in salary and hospitals pile up hundreds of millions of dollars in reserves, teachers, correctional officers, state troopers, nurses, road workers and housekeepers wonder if hospitals will accept their health insurance. All because Waldrum and other executives want to milk millions more from the State Health Plan. If hospitals don’t accept the State Health Plan, it could put over 720,000 state employees and retirees at risk.
“The self-funded State Health Plan represents more than 720,000 state employees and retirees, and spends $3.3 billion a year. It is the largest health-care buyer in the state. But is one of the worst-funded public health plans in the nation. It has 3 percent of the funding it needs to cover projected future expenses, with $35 billion in unfunded liabilities. By 2023, it won’t have enough money to pay its bills.
(State Treasurer Dale) Folwell hopes to launch his Clear Pricing Project… requiring health care providers to publish their prices. Letting health care consumers price shop would spark competition and reduce costs.”
