STRSers who fell through the cracks....

From John Curry, February 10, 2011

Q. How many current STRS retirees have Medicare Part B only...that is, those who have fallen through the cracks in the system because their former Ohio employers (school boards) didn't see the need (or just flat out didn't want) to enroll them in conventional Medicare as they were forced (by law) to do so for only "new hires" after 1989?

A. 9,362

Will these 9,362 be forgotten?

Gee.....I wonder why ORTA is not talking about this?
