P lan Changes. The Employer will make all determinations with regard to plans, plan design, policies, carriers, coverages, benefits and premiums. If Employer decides to adopt a new medical plan or change a medical plan resulting in material changes in premium costs or benefit coverage, Employer and Union may establish an insurance committee which includes two representatives from each bargaining unit, two non-represented employees and two from management. The committee will review policies coverage and premiums with a broker and make recommendations to Employer. Employer will consider the recommendations but reserves the right to make the final determination with regard to plans, plan design, carriers, policies, coverages, benefits and premiums. The Employer will notify the Union, in writing, of the Employer’s determinations. Upon request by the Union, during the ninety (90) calendar day period following this notification, the Union and Employer will negotiate about the Employer’s medical plan determinations, but the obligation to bargain about the changes ceases after the ninety (90) calendar day period. Thereafter, the Employer has the right to implement its determinations regarding new or changed plans, plan design, carriers, policies, coverage, benefits, and premiums following this ninety (90) calendar day period. Employer’s determinations are not subject to the grievance procedures.
