Twice in the past we have sought carrier reaction to putting our
contract term on a calendar year basis rather than having it run
from November 1 to October 31. Each time a majority of carriers
reacted'favorably. A few carriers said they would anticipate some
inconvenience if the change were made.
We have since had requests from many carriers - including one or
two who originally did not favor the change - to put the contract
term on a calendar year basis. We see many real advantages for
the very large majority of carriers in doing this. These advantages
far outweigh the few inconveniences one or two plans might find,
We have concluded, therefore, that in any case the next contract
term, which normally would end October 31,_ 1966, will run through
December 31, 1966, so as to put us on a.calendar year basis.
However, we do not have to wait this long to realize the advantages
of a contract which is coextensive with the calendar year. We can
simply now amend our current contract to run for an additional two
months to December 31, 1965. Then our next contract term would
run from January 1 to December 31, 1966, With this in mind, I am
asking each carrier which participates in the Federal Employees
Health Benefits Program to advise me if it sees any serious obstacles
to our proposing and the carrier accepting an amendment of our current
contract which would extend its term to December 31, 1965.
Your prompt reply will. be appreciated.
Sincerely yours,
Andrew E. Ruddock
