I am the wife of an officer who works for a city pd. The city considers its police officers and fireman as city employees on the same level as sanitation works, clerks and secretaries. Therefore, their medical insurance comes out of their pockets. Having just looked at our wonderful policy, which has gone up - again, I see where each time our family needs to see a physcian, we have to co-pay $40!

Can anyone tell me if we are the only city police department that has to pay for our own insurance. Yes, I mean that the department does NOT pay for p/o's insurance. At one time they did. I can understand having to pay for family medical insurance, but not on our husbands who put their lives on the line each day. HELP?

Who do you have your insurance through? :twisted:
