Treasurer Dale R. Folwell, CPA, Comments on Blue Cross NC Choosing Not to Appeal Office of Administrative Hearings Ruling

We are pleased that Blue Cross NC is choosing not to appeal the well-reasoned opinion of Judge Melissa Owens Lassiter of the Office of Administrative Hearings. The members of the State Health Plan and taxpayers like them deserve to have this uncertainty ended. We will continue to be relentless in our pursuit of improving benefits for teachers and state employees in a cost-effective manner for taxpayers.
