Since January 2010, the UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust has been providing health care benefits for UAW auto retirees and their dependents. Joe Sagy, our Region 1-C Retiree Benefits Rep, has sent us the Addendum to the 2010 Schedule of Benefits and Summary Plan Description previously published.
Your 2011 benefit design includes:
* Coverage for new diabetes education, smoking cessation and cardiac rehabilitation programs
