As a results guy you should be disappointed with the progress on the MBCBP. Three years of “study” and a year since implementation was accepted, yet 2020 came and went without an additional savings tool. I’m not holding my breath on 2021. LOAs were fine for the previous Covid19 circumstances but no more. Solve all the issues in one agreement.
