Hi,
I would really appreciate it if you who are at large state Univerisities 
could help me out with some info, or research. 

Many UMass professional employees have been patients at the UMass Health 
Services on campus for many years. Now UHS wants to kick out retirees who 
acquire medicare at age 65. This means changing physicians in an area where 
that is likely to be difficult, etc. 

Some of us are trying to challenge this and could use data from comparable 
schools.

Your school?
Do some campus staff use your campus health services?
Can clients who turn 65 and have medicare continue to use the services?
Any comments?

Thanks so much.
