Ask Us Anything Edition: Budget Stalemate, Health Benefits, and Holiday Pay
The SEANC View podcast addresses listener questions on state employee and retiree concerns, including the absent budget, the loss of retirement health insurance for hires after 2021, early December pay changes, and the $3.3 billion surplus. We discuss staffing and retention issues, why COLAs aren’t being issued despite strong investment returns, the role of EMPAC endorsements, Aetna vs. Blue Cross transitions, and potential future coverage for GLP-1 drugs. Plus: a light-hearted round on favorite Christmas songs.
