So......for the sake of bringing everything out into the light. We should all be aware of the proposed changes to our current guaranteed yearly costs: from what I read, beginning Jan 2017 (because the 2016 rates will already be established), the company will appoint an accountant type to determine the projected health care cost based on our prior years usage as a group and other factors (that they deem fit) and they will base our premiums on 18% (19% in 2019..and so on) of that number.

So....the important thing I take from this is our future health care premiums will no longer be a fixed known cost but rather a sliding increasing scale to which we have 0 control.

Please someone tell me I'm missing something here. Holy crap!
