Discussion of issues is good. I learn more from group discussion then individually.
VEBA (.50/CH) can only be used for the Medicare supplement - which TFL covers. It can not be used for the premium which everyone pays. Would have been great to make it useful that way but they decided to not include military retirees in its use. This may change if TFL starts charging.
Have to ask Tony why the MEC chose to exclude military retirees from the benefit that we all pay for. Maybe DW and BC weren't TFL eligible??
