    Why is there not a meeting in the northern panhandle. Did we forget the northern panhandle we are West Virginians? What is TFI is that for people who both work for PEIA insured jobs Or all income even outside PEIA cover jobs. I live in northern panhandle were Pittsburgh hospitals are closer than Morgantown. I feel I am a victim of where I live because Pittsburgh is two counties out. why is are health care not put out for competitive bidding. How many other health care plans premiums are income based. In industry this is unheard of normally a flat rate for couples, single and families.
