Our health insurance should never have been taken away in the first place. I’m retired I have my doctors. At this point in my life it would be difficult to change. I don’t want to get pre approval. It’s as if the rug was taken out from under our feet. It’s too much to bare at this time of my life! We deserve better than bait and switch.Phyllis Bass (Boca Raton, 2022-03-16)

I do not want my healthcare changed act this time to a subpar plan.Eva Morris (Staten Island, 2022-03-16)

This plan will affect the most vulnerable the elderly retirees. They should not be sacrificed for active members to get raises on the saving. Preauthorizations will harm the sickly who need immediate careEddie Diaz (Florida, 2022-03-16)

The city stated certain benefits were available to me if I were to retire after 20 years service. I held up my part of the deal by working for 21 years and retiring in good standing. You must now hold up your end of the deal.?Anthony Repetti (Lindenhurst, 2022-03-16)

This is a disgrace. I just can't believe that the city would try to do this to all retirees. It's like changing the rules of a game, after the game is over. Well, the game is over for us. The fact that nobody knew this was happening, behind closed doors says it all. There must be corruption built into this plan. Don't appeal this and just let us keep all of our current benefits which we have all earned. Let this plan die!Michael Neithardt (Carmel, 2022-03-16)

I am signing because I want to maintain my current medical insurance, MedicareAnd GHI Senior Care for myself and my husband.
This is the insurance I have had while in service and the insurance I had planned on continuing with after retirement from the DOE.
That was part of my qualified benefit package for working a number of years with the DOE

I have many underlying conditions where I use specialists that DO NOT accept the MAP. I am on a limited income and paying the 191 a month will put me in the poor house. I’m asking you to think of us retirees and not the money the city needs. I’m sorry you took on a job in the negatives but please I will be hurting without my doctors.Karen Notaro (Staten Island, 2022-03-16)

I can not afford to lose the health care I have with top notch doctors due to injuries I sustained while a police officer. I am a disabled police officer who deserves to have the best medical treatment available. To keep the doctors I trust my life with. Not to have the rug pulled out from under me in my disabled condition.Stacey Maher (Pearl River, 2022-03-16)

LET'S JUST SAY I'VE DONE CONTRACTING, HMO AND PART D (AND OTHERS) FOR HHC AND IMPLEMENTATIONS FOR HHC AND THE MAYOR'S OFFICE WHERE I WORKED AS AN AIDE AND ADVANCE MAN FOR A FORMER ADMINISTRATION. IF YOU WANT TO IMPROVE BENEFITS WISELY YOU DON'T DO IT BY CREATING A HODGEPODGE OF WHAT IS KNOWN AS UNFAVORABLE AND PROBLEMATIC ALONG WITH A PLAN OF ACTION NOT MUCH BETTER THAN THE CORRECTED PLAN OF ACTION AND RETROACTIVELY ESPECIALLY TRY TO DECREASE THE HEALTHCARE OF RETIRES MANY WHO'VE WORKED MANY DECADES TO EARN WHAT YOU'VE SUPPLIED. I'VE TRIED TO STAY WITH GENERALITIES FOR A DETAILED ANALYSIS CANNOT EVEN BEGIN HERE. AND PEOPLE WITH KNOWLEDGE ARE REQUIRED.Bruce Kerr (Staten Island, 2022-03-16)

This is a burden to retirees that have no real cola.This is unfair because our earning power has Demi us he’s but a bill is being increased that when we were hired was told it wouldn’t happen.

I want to keep my doctors without risk of a new plan that does not guarantee me the same benefits or even if I can use the same doctors here in Florida. I am comfortable with GHI Senior Care and I want to keep my planVernon Geberth (Marco Island, 2022-03-16)
#4144
I wish to keep the benefits I choose when I retired without paying extra to keep it.. I don't feel it is right to change what I retired with. Us retirees should be grandfathered in, if you must let the future retiree take on the new insurance policiesJames Dianora (New York, 2022-03-16)

Don't want my Medicare taken from me for an expensive imitation, a Medicare Advantage Plan. With all their promises, I have found most of the BC/BS info/promises to be false. NOT all doctors or hospitals are in the plan. BC/BS rep claims because a doctor is in the BC/BS network, he/she is automatically in the MAPP. NOT TRUE. Different companies.Brian Reilly (Glendale, 2022-03-16)

I'm signing because I dedicated my professional life to the citizens of NYC. In return for protecting them and fulfilling my oath, I was guaranteed that my hard earned pension and my health benefits would be protected in my retirement. That was my bargain with the city. These rights are sacred to me and I will fight to maintain them until the day I die!!!Richard Alles (NYC, 2022-03-16)
