The Cost of Medical/Dental Insurance
Those who said “yes, we have coverage” – 23 AssociationsCan we assume members of 10 associations pay nothing?
What percentage of single or semi-private hospital room costs are covered?
Greater than 70%
50-70%
20-49%
None
21 of 33 Associations answeredDoes that mean that the other 12 also had none?
What percentage of routine dental services costs is covered?
Greater than 70%
50-70%
20-49%
None
12 Associations skipped this questionThis probably means that the “None” light-green area should be almost doubled.
Many retirees continue involvement with their college/university or with the larger com-
munity. Is your Association/Union involved in promoting or encouraging such involvement?
YesNo

In Summary
• Our Associations are (mostly) established• Enough of us have health coverage that a
precedent is there for the rest• Insurance cost to the individual varies greatly
(Why?)• Our associations are active on many fronts• Among activities, nobody mentioned:
involvement in CURAC/ARUCC !!
