Comment on Lake County is Unhealthy? by Bill Berditzman

I agree. There are no health issues in Lake County. All efforts should be made to revitalize the downtown and get Hwy. 61 detoured to 1st Avenue.

With no explanation of just exactly what it means, that Lake County is unhealthy, the article actually means nothing at all. It is sensational only. There was a hint when there was mention made that this is a recreational county and that there are a lot of liquor outlets because of our hospitality industry. Another hint was the mention of the relatively high proportion of older folks in our county, compared to some other areas of the state with relatively younger population. I do not consider the Duluth News Tribune to be much of a newspaper, and think it would be more properly sold at the grocery store checkout counter next to the Enquirer. feh.

Excellent comment! I wonder how BCBS managed to get that one past the State when they were negotiating contracts. I know that some State grants and contracts have what amounts to a “buy American” clause in them. Does this decision by BCBS affects the employees of their claims processing centers on the Iron Range?

It should be noted that the employees were told at the meeting when the lay-off date was confirmed that one of the major reasons the facility is being closed is that Blue Cross/Blue Shield (FirstSolutions processes claims under contract for BCBS) will be outsourcing all their government services claims to a processing center in India.

So any claims to MN Care or any other government subsidized program that is serviced by BCBS and paid for by MN tax dollars will see those claims processed by citizens of the country of India instead of MN workers.

I’m as free market as the next guy, but our tax dollars should not be walking overseas and putting Minnesotans out of work. Period.

All part of spreading the good word Tom. And yes, it is sometimes a very tangled web that we weave.

A website has a facebook page? Why? I just don’t get it. I guess I will be the last person on this planet to have, get, or do a facebook page. Next I suppose would be a web log about the facebook page about the website. It gets ridiculouser and ridiculouser.
