If so, is there any way ALPA can request a summary of plan expenses and payments? I would like to know how much, if anything Delta contributes to our health care costs and if it is a profit center for them.

Thanks
Delta is self insured. UHC is paid to administer the plan. ALPA gets briefed every year (June) on the following year's health care plan rate development (required for the contractual plans (DPMP and Option N)). The numbers in the rate development aren't public, but health care costs Delta a lot of money. It is not a profit center.
