Letter From UAW Benefits Trust Concerning Data Breach

The UAW Benefits Trust recently mailed a letter to Trust Members concerning a potential security risk. The data breach did not occur within the trust, but rather through a software company that manages data for the trust and hundreds of other health care plans. The company called NationsBenefits handles the OTC (Over The Counter) benefits for the VEBA Trust.

Hope this finds everyone doing okay.  At our meeting Monday we will have two of our providers there.  Blue Cross and United Health Care.

If you have a problem with either of these or just need info they will be available to assist you.

Our retiree meetings have been well-attended since the threat of COVID has lessened.  We are thankful for that.

This will be our regular scheduled meeting the first since the conclusion of the International Executive Board Election.   At this point, President Ray Curry is trailing his opponent by 638 votes.  The only remaining votes left to be determined are the challenged ballots.  It is my understanding there are approximately 1100 hundred that will be reviewed this coming Thursday.  We should know the official outcome by the time we have our meeting.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

We will be discussing the changes in our Prescription Drug mail-ordering procedure.  We need to identify any problems we are having. I have received several calls with different issues.

Hopefully, everyone has received their BCBS Medical Card with the RX at the bottom right.

As we pointed out we are serving a meal at the meeting, Christmas luncheon: Ham, Turkey, and Rolls are provided by the Local.  Several volunteers are providing covered dishes or desserts.  You are welcome to bring a cover dish.

We are also having a food drive for the needy, can food or dried food in boxes are the preferred choice.  I'm sure whatever you bring will be appreciated.
