Iron County School Employee Health Insurance

Iron County School District employees enjoy,
for the most part, a subsidy to help pay for
their health insurance costs amounting to a
Thousand Dollars a month or more. I think
health insurance is important but I think
that the public at large should see these
numbers as a matter of routine rather than
having to go through a Freedom of Information
(FOIA) process to get it in the first place.

The problem is, of course, that the general
public isn't used to having to do their own
work in these regards, usually the local news
media brings such information to them as a
matter of routine business. But unfortunately
that isn't true in much of rural Michigan, and
so on occasion places like Mackinac Center
bring such matters to the public attention.

The relevant information for Iron County may be
found at click here

The entire Mackinac Center database may be accessed

It might be interesting to see how Iron County
compares to the school districts.
