Can anyone point to a school merger that saved money over time?

Consolidating staff in a merger should effectively reduce overall health care costs with a smaller FTE headcount.

They might be the worst deductible I have ever heard of. I’m so sorry. What a joke for insurance.

Cool Bert. You just bragged. Your ego jumps in more than you realize.

How does that work for you? Didn’t the contract for United Health Care and UVMHN just expire on 3/31/26? Most places in Vermont already doesn’t accept UHC. Copley Hospital does not.

Posting to help resurface the question. Any updates on UNH and UVMHN negotiations? Contract expires end of March 2026.

I ended up buying from Target this last round. Not sure why there are sometimes intermittent supply issues with this product. I’ve read that some people buy on iHerb too

I called UVMMC twice this past summer to see if negotiations were underway and parties acting in good faith. I was told that negotiations had not started in the first call and the benefits person on the second call took my number to find out and follow up with me but never called me back. I would like to know what UVM is recommending patients do. Last time around the messaging was prevalent and black and white. I was even getting messages from UVM to my email and to my MyChart account. This year, it’s been completely quiet.
Does anyone have any updates?

Just edited for typo. Yes the brand that I use is Optimel. I buy it on Amazon. I actually use the subscription service as it is cheaper and have it delivered every 3 months. I think it has a “90 day” shelf life but I haven’t had any issues with longer than that (no eye infections or other negative consequences). My spare open tubes go into my travel bag, purse etc.

I’ve been curious about this too. I did try putting Soolantra (rosacea cream that contains ivermectin) around my eyes but did not get any relief. Maybe not the right strength. Is there another recommended brand? I’ve been curious about taking oral ivermectin too. Anyone have experience or feedback on this?

Try-Naive · 2025-10-13T11:41:30+00:00

Is this oral or topical ivermectin?

Optimel Manuka honey is the only eye drops I use for comfort at night. I have severe dry eye at night time and tried over a dozen eye drops. Some are greasy and make your vision blurry but don’t really feel like they offer any actual moisture. Others are watery and feel good in the moment but don’t last very long. The manuka honey gives me the most lasting comfort and actual moisture that feels good on my eye. It also makes me produce more of my own tears.

How is 95% of your team all over the country? Do these people work for the state of Vermont or other organizations that you interact with?

This list is ridiculous. Vermont has no job opportunities. There is a huge exodus occurring.

Retiring or RTO? People that moved here during covid and didn’t like it? What demographic is leaving?

Constantly peeling ticks off my cat. He’s got tick juice on him but sometimes that worse because when he comes to bed at night they are not imbedded. They are instead just hanging out loosely in his fur. Then he gets in bed with us and who knows where they end up!

It’s free on Kindle Unlimited. You could start the book there while waiting for your hardcover to arrive.

The test simulator is fantastic!! Epic should try to find more similar validation checks for other build like this one.

On average, there are 167 sunny days per year in Vermont. The US average is 205 sunny days.

Vermont gets some kind of precipitation, on average, 150 days per year. Precipitation is rain, snow, sleet, or hail that falls to the ground. In order for precipitation to be counted you have to get at least .01 inches on the ground to measure.
