Letter to BJ retirees on insurance



December 9, 2009


Re: 2010 health care coverage

The rising cost of health care continues to be a problem for employers with no apparent end in sight.

Recently, we received the 2010 rates from Aetna. The rates were a 57% increase over the cost for 2009. We were expecting an increase but in a range several times less than what was presented.


The good news is that the Beacon Journal will not pass on to you any of the increase for 2010. Your current benefits and costs will remain unchanged for 2010.


If you have questions or want more information, please contact Karen Jones at 330-9963183 or me at 330-996-3184.


Very truly yours,
