A a member, I'd like to see SEUI take it in the tummy ~ a big ol'tuck ~ maybe cut their dental and raise the price for coverage by the company under the Kaiser umbrella.
The alternative is to just give in to SEUI while whacking service to Medicare covered members.
The waits for appointments are getting longer all the time as it is, and the SEUI support personnel are just dogging it.
Now that they've made their threat, no more standing aside for any of them to get on an elevator ~ "take the stairs babe" ~ get out the way!
NOT: I do believe the SEUI people forgot that they do come into close contact with the patients, and some of us know how to play with sharp objects too ~ just like them. If they want more stuff they'd best go get it from Obama ~ not me. Frankly, I don't like them.
For what it's worth, Kaiser has, in the past, attempted to unload itself of the dental part of its business, which according to my sources, has been more profitable than the medical side of it. I have "family" retired from there but still in close contact with others still working there.
As a taxpayer, I'd like to see that union take a couple right in the head ~ a big ol' double-tap ~ and the rest of us would be so much better off. FRegards.
