Does This Proposed Agreement Protect Retirees From Financial Ruin?

I have a concern regarding the tentative agreement in the Northeast.
I realize we paid a heavy price in 1989 and, as a result of that sacrifice, were able to keep essentially cost-free medical benefits for the next two-and-a-half decades.
However, uncertain economic times in 2016 resulted in us, fairly or not, shouldering more of the burden, not only the men and women that had 20, 25, 30, 35... years on the job under their belt already, but also the retirees now had to unexpectedly pony up and adjust to this new and unexpected financial burden on a fixed income based on earlier reasonable expectations and assumptions, if I understand correctly.
I am now hearing murmurings about about retiree healthcare skyrocketing, from, say, $60 a month to 10X that amount, $600 a month, for example. I hope these rumors are wrong and that I am needlessly worrying about something that will never come to be.
Are there any guarantees built into this new tentative agreement that shield both our current retirees, as well as those that will eventually be joining their ranks, from the future uncertainty of exorbitant increases that will make affordability a larger hurdle, if not an impossibility, for the elderly who served their union and their company well?

2008 is the year the older members gave up on newer.

2008 the healthcare went away for new hires

2012 the pension went away

2016 techs started to become anti union and cross the line

2019 extended this cr-p

2022 techs become completely anti union. They threaten to cross the line if there’s a strike and give up on the rest of the union.

2026 why should I care if there no union in the union.

Maryland program supports federal worker entrepreneurs

Federal layoffs impacted nearly 25,000 jobs in Maryland during 2025. The Maryland Women's Business Center launched a new program in response. Called 'Founders Rising', this 8-week program aids laid-off federal workers. It teaches participants to develop business concepts and launch new firms. Dr. Stefany Holguin successfully launched her healthcare consulting firm after completing the program.

Retiree medical not addressed? Did the company use a "neuralyzer" on the union?

Last year company/union talks broke off supposedly over the raise in caps for retiree healthcare. Now we have a tentative contract where the info just released does not seem to address this issue at all. Did the company use that memory erasing device from the Men In Black movie ("neuralyzer") on the union? I guess we all just have to work until Medicare eligible, and then pray that they don't take that and SS away from us to give more tax breaks to Elon Musk and the other multi billionaires. Is anybody out there actually representing the working stiff?

Boulder City Hospital Cuts Services, Lays Off 70 Staff

Boulder City Hospital will lay off approximately 70 employees. It is also ending several services, including patient stays over 24 hours. The facility is transitioning to a rural emergency hospital designation by May 1. This restructuring is driven by financial conditions and funding changes. The new designation provides financial incentives, including a significant annual subsidy.

90 POINTS

Can someone explain the significance of 90 points? Do they matter only for the company contribution towards healthcare premiums or do the 90 points come into play for other benefits?

New Hampshire Bill Links Hospital Pay to Layoffs

A New Hampshire bill proposes freezing executive pay at Coos County hospitals. This freeze would occur if hospitals lay off 10 or more workers in a department. State Senator David Rochefort introduced the bill, citing accountability for Medicaid funds. North County Healthcare, which operates the hospitals, opposes the legislation. They argue the bill removes local control and could negatively impact healthcare.

Genoa Healthcare Layoffs

Michigan: This Is What Corporate Negligence Looks Like

Humana has reached rock bottom, and that’s not an exaggeration.

SNP leadership has taken on a Michigan contract that is clearly beyond their operational capacity, and frontline associates are the ones being forced to absorb the fallout.

We received 7 hours of training for work that realistically requires at least a week to do safely and competently. Yet we are now expected to call members, keep them on the phone for two hours, complete over 100 assessment questions, conduct a full care plan review, complete ICT documentation, and do this three times per day.

There is no raise. No incentive. Instead, mandatory overtime to compensate for leadership’s decisions.

This is not sustainable. It is not responsible. It compromises the quality of care our vulnerable members deserve.

And let’s be clear: this is not what work-life balance looks like. This is not how you support healthcare professionals. This is burnout by design.
Associates are exhausted, frustrated, and deeply concerned about the direction this is going.

It’s Happening…DFW Market Shrinks Again!

As of today, 2/18/2026, several Director level and above were laid off in DFW, Clinic Ops. Invitations were emailed for a “Leadership Touchbase” tomorrow morning. One invitation is for 7:45 a.m. and the other is for 8:00 a.m. For those who have made it through multiple layoffs over the past 3 years, we know what those two invitations mean. Additional clinic consolidations have already been announced, and the entire DFW market will soon only consist of about 40 Primary Care clinics. Fewer clinics means fewer employees. This is a last ditch effort to slow the bleeding before WellMed goes belly up.

130,000 jobs added in January, Health care accounted for more than 60%, but Cigna laid off 2000!

What’s wrong with Cigna? Against the trend?
Cigna laid off 2000 employees while other health care organizations added 82k jobs!

130,000 jobs added in January !
The January numbers came in stronger than the 75,000 economists had expected. Health care accounted for nearly 82,000, or more than 60%, of last month's new jobs.

Hennepin Layoffs

I just received a message from my amazing physician 2/7/26, that she is leaving Hennepin Health. My family is heartbroken. She was the best doctor all of us have ever seen. She listened, respected, was compassionate and always made time for us. Even the specialists we saw were amazing. We were at Whittier Clinic in the wonderful integrative health care clinic, which is being permanently closed at Whittier. Our community here in So Mpls is losing so much, in terms of medical accessibility and local businesses. Our community is already a food desert as well.

South Minneapolis is such a special place and my family has been here for four generations, since the redlining and covenants existed, which is why my grandparents could only live in this community.

I cant believe how much fraud and mismanagement has destroyed this community specifically (district 5), the city and the state. So many Americans are suffering under the impending economic collapse here and all anyone seems to care about are immigrants rights, as if no American citizens are also facing food, housing, medical and resource shortages and insecurities. We should be united and protesting this fraud! But no, the insanity and violence of these protestors and agigtators has negatively impacted our community and taken all of the attention away from the larger problem of state-wide fraud that hurts us all. What a shame.

Emisar and GPO question

I see the recent legislature will exempt or at least require GPO transparency, but I have no idea what that means for OptumRx. Does anyone have an estimate of how much $ Emisar captures for us? I realize this is probably known by only a few, very select employees and probably not casual readers of this site, nor something they would share openly. So I’m asking this group - any idea how much revenue Emisar pulls? When/if that company gets eliminated, how will the flat rate policy instructed in the legislation impact our revenue? I also realize that this is almost 2 years away, but wondering if layoffs will begin to wind down operations long before then.

Clinicians…how do you reconcile working here?

Physicians, social workers, counselors, nurses….how do you do it? I’m not talking about finance, IT, or those departments. Just the member interacting employees. You can perform whatever mental gymnastics you want to make you sleep better at night, but you’re really just gatekeeping healthcare on behalf of a company who’s primary responsibility is to maximize financial gain for its shareholders. Doesn’t seem quite in the spirit of the Hippocratic Oath the Nightingale Pledge. It definitely wasn’t for me.
