The Group Insurance Commission is a new state law and very foreign to me. I do however know there are both proponents and opponents to the implementation of the new state law to the City of Medford. It is something I would have to look into before I came out with a firm opinion on it.
I know that those who are receiving the city's health plan want to make sure that their health coverage is as good as what they have now. On the other hand, the GIC would help drive down overall health costs, and the city needs to concentrate on how to save money any place they can. It would take much debate and I would have to do hours of research before I could choose a side.
