I’m a gov’t employee. Next month, the 2013 cost for health care plans will come out. Last time....it was roughly a four-percent increase over the previous year, and I’m expecting at least five-percent this year. This “cut” that the President chatted about....just ain’t there. I don’t know where the “cut” is supposed to be, but it’s not realistic and I doubt if it ever was realistic.
4% is nothing! Try 45% for my wife and I on a company work BCBS plan with no other changes this year!!
