Welcome to Teachers Rally Against Georgia Insurance Changes (T.R.A.G.I.C.). We welcome all state employees who have been negatively impacted by the new Blue Cross Blue Shield health insurance plans administered by the State Health Benefit Plan for 2014. Please Note: this is a bipartisan page and is NOT related to any changes under the Affordable Care Act.
**** ACTION ALERT: Since we have grown s
o quickly, it is time we start taking our mission off of Facebook and into the community to gain awareness! ****
Our plan is to post a weekly "Action Alert" for T.R.A.G.I.C. This will allow us to make a REAL difference as there is strength in numbers! Please watch for an updated Action Alert to be pinned here at the top of the page each Sunday afternoon. If we come together as a group and follow the steps below each week, our collective voice will be POWERFUL! ACTION ALERT FOR THE WEEK OF 1/5:
Our first Action Alert will be to call the Governor's office daily this week. Letters will follow suit (next week!), but calls are more effective! Every call must be logged, while emails often get overlooked. OUR TASK FOR THE WEEK - CALL THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE:
Call Governor Deal's office (daily this week if possible!). It is a brief call to make, and it is important that we come out in full force. Please be sure to reference that you are a member of the Facebook group, T.R.A.G.I.C., and that you are calling to notify the Governor that our healthcare plan is NOT acceptable for 2014. of Community Health made the 'ultimate decision' for our plan, but their 9-person board is appointed by the Governor. Their choice has left us CHOICELESS! Let your voice be heard! Governor's Office Phone Number: 404-656-1776
You can call any time M-F, 8:30 - 5:00 pm
