Health care law impacts insurance for 2010 college grads
By REESE McFADDIN
President, Workplace Benefits
Reprinted with permission
Editor's
note: May and June's graduates are probably thinking about kicking
back and relaxing for a little while now that classes are out,
but their parents might have their minds on some of the financial
issues that arise with a graduation, including what it all means
for the student's health insurance. Reese McFaddin, owner of Workplace
Benefits on Daniel Island, wrote a recent
blog post on what the new health insurance reform legislation
means for parents and students. We thank her for letting us reprint
it today.
MAY
31, 2010 -- It's May and for many young people it's graduation time!
College graduation is a huge accomplishment and an exciting time.
But for me, all I remember is being scared to death. I did not want
to leave my friends and certainly was not ready for the grown-up
world, which was defined by my father saying, "It's time to
get off the payroll."
McFaddin |
As
if getting off the payroll and graduation weren't daunting and depressing
enough, many of us also had to quickly scramble to find health insurance
within weeks of graduation. Our only options were finding a job
or purchasing an individual policy.
Now that health reform is the law of the land, a college-age child
will be able to stay on his or her parents' plan until age 26. As
it stands now, this will be in effect beginning September 23, 2010.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of South Carolina and United Healthcare are
ahead of the curve and are allowing young adults in this category
to be covered on their parents' plan (individual or group) effective
June 1, 2010.
As mentioned before in a previous
blog post, this guideline is only defined as being under the
age 26, and the young adult does not have to be in school. The IRS
has not further defined "dependent." In other words, the
law doesn't mention anything about the dependent having a job, being
married, or being supported with "X" amount paid per month.
Things to consider if you have a graduate in the family:
- Do
you have one child already on your employer plan? If so, it's
probably more cost effective for all of your dependent children
to stay on your policy.
- Is
this is your last or only dependent child? Then an individual
plan might be a better financial option, as it is cheaper and
the child can keep it past the age of 26 (regardless of marital
or job status). However, if your child has pre-existing health
issues, then staying on your group plan will be best.
Congratulations,
2010 graduates, on the next chapter of life -- and being able to
stay on the payroll until you are 26! Please keep in mind, the points
on this blog post are subject to change and may be interpreted differently
by the IRS and the insurance carriers. This is just a general outline
from what we tentatively know right now.

Recent
poll still has us scratching our heads
By ANDY BRACK, publisher
MAY
31, 2010 - With about a week before the primaries, a new InsiderAdvantage/
Statehouse Report poll still has us flummoxed.
Brack |
The
poll, taken the night following the May 25 headline-grabbing accusations
that GOP Rep. Nikki Haley had an extramarital affair with a blogger
in 2007, showed voters still preferred her over three male opponents.
Of the respondents who said they would vote in the Republican primary,
just over 30 percent said they'd cast ballots for Haley, compared
to 20 percent for Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer and 14 percent each for U.S.
Rep. Gresham Barrett and Attorney General Henry McMaster.
With South Carolina being such a "family values" state,
it's tough to explain why Haley would keep the lead. Either Republican
respondents weren't overly concerned about the allegations involving
Haley or they had not had enough time on the night the poll was
taken to process what the allegations of impropriety meant.
 Or
maybe the folks being surveyed were sick of the smarmy side of politics.
Just look at how they responded when asked whether they would be
more or less likely to vote for a candidate accused of having an
extramarital affair. Some 18 percent said they'd actually be more
likely to vote for someone who had an affair - certainly a response
that is counterintuitive in this conservative state.
Regardless of the truth of the allegations involving Haley, her
campaign ought to worry a little because 45 percent of respondents
said they wouldn't vote for or would be less likely to vote for
a candidate who faced allegations of an affair.
An old rule of politics is that perception is more important than
reality. In the days ahead, if the Haley campaign can't corral this
scandal, it might end up having a lot of problems.
Other results of the poll found Democratic Sen. Vincent Sheheen
of Camden leading in his party's primary for governor. Of those
who said they'd vote in the Democratic primary, 26 picked Sheheen
and 17 percent tapped state Superintendent Jim Rex. Charleston Sen.
Robert Ford nabbed 12 percent. Some 45 percent of voters said they
didn't know who they'd vote for or had no opinion. In other words,
two weeks out, the election was wide open.
The race for lieutenant governor was an even bigger wild card. In
a four-way GOP field, former Mount Pleasant Sen. Larry Richter had
16 percent. Others in the field: Florence councilman Ken Ard (13.7
percent); Orangeburg lawyer Bill Connor (11.3 percent) and Columbia
businesswoman Eleanor Kitzman (5.1 percent). Some 53.6 percent of
those polled had no opinion or didn't know who they would pick on
June 8.
Other highlights of the InsiderAdvantage/Statehouse Report poll:
 Wrong
direction. South Carolina is headed in the wrong direction,
according to 50.2 percent of respondents. One-fourth said it was
heading in the right direction. Another quarter said they had
no opinion. The results from the May 25 poll are dramatically
different from a December InsiderAdvantage/Statehouse Report poll
in which 39 percent of respondents said the state was headed in
the wrong direction.
- Mine,
not yours. South Carolinians tend to think their legislators
do a better job than the legislature as a whole. Almost half of
respondents (49.5 percent) rated state legislators as a whole
as below average or failing. But only 34.4 percent said the state
legislators for their district were below average or failing.
Conversely, 26.8 percent graded their legislators as outstanding
or good, compared to 15.4 percent of respondents who rated all
legislators as outstanding or good.

Mt. Pleasant ER nurse
honored for Adopt-A-Highway work
An
Emergency Department nurse from East Cooper Medical Center has picked
up an award for his efforts to keep the Lowcountry clean. Jeff Hunter,
RN, was recognized with an Adopt-A-Highway Award at the annual Community
Pride Luncheon earlier this month. Community
Pride is a nonprofit organization that promotes environmental
stewardship among all citizens of Charleston County.
Hunter |
What
started as a simple healthy activity to promote his overall wellness
turned into a personal endeavor on Hunter's part to create a cleaner
and greener community. "A couple of years ago, I got on a health
kick and began to walk to work," he said. "I noticed a
ton of garbage on the road and decided to adopt a road and pick
up trash while on my way to the hospital."
Hunter
adopted Bowman Road as part of the Adopt-a-Highway program. More
recently, he has adopted Mount Pleasant's Hospital Drive, where
East Cooper Medical Center is located. He will patrol both Hospital
Drive and Bowman Road for the next two years.
"We
are very proud of Jeff and happy our community acknowledges his
efforts to beautify our neighborhoods. He also works very hard in
the emergency room, always with a smile," says Janie Sinacore-Jaberg,
CEO of the hospital. "He's a special human being, and we're
very lucky to have him as part of our family."
Vintage
kitchen items to be offered at culinary group's sale
Vintage
cookbooks, silver serviceware and linens will be among the offerings

ENCYCLOPEDIA
Medal of Honor
recipients
Approved
by the United States Congress in 1862, the Medal of Honor is America's
highest award for military valor. Thirty native South Carolinians
have been awarded the medal for "conspicuous gallantry and
intrepidity" above that of their comrades in arms. On rare
occasions the Medal of Honor has been awarded for individual exploits
taking place in peacetime. Among them is Shipfitter First Class
George Huber Wheeler of Charleston, who received the award for extraordinary
heroism during a fire at Coquimbo, Chile, on January 20, 1909.
 |
The
first South Carolinian to receive the award during military action
was Ernest A. Garlington of Newberry, who earned the honor for "distinguished
gallantry" against the Sioux Indians at the Battle of Wounded
Knee on December 29, 1890. Early in the following century, naval
surgeon Middleton Stuart Elliott of Beaufort and Commander William
A. Moffett of Charleston each received the decoration during hostilities
against Mexican forces at Vera Cruz in April 1914.
Eight
South Carolinians were awarded the medal during World War I, including
three who made the supreme sacrifice. Six recipients were members
of the 118th Infantry, which received more Medals of Honor than
any other regiment in the American Expeditionary Forces. Among them
was Providence native Corporal James D. Heriot of the Thirtieth
Division. Heriot made a lone thirty-yard dash against a German machine
gun nest and forced the team to surrender, only to fall himself
later that day. In 1991 the sisters of Corporal Freddie Stowers
of Anderson County were presented a posthumous award for his extraordinary
courage while attempting to destroy a machine gun that had pinned
down his men during World War I. Stowers was the only African American
from the war awarded the medal.
While
serving in Nicaragua between the world wars, Marine Corporal Donald
L. Truesdale of Lugoff saved the lives of the members of his patrol
by shielding them from the shock of an errant grenade on April 24,
1932. During World War II five South Carolinians were awarded the
medal for courage and self-sacrifice. Marine Sergeant Robert A.
Owens of Greenville made a charge against a well-placed Japanese
gun that was wreaking havoc on American landing operations in the
Solomon Islands on November 1, 1943. His sacrifice silenced the
gun and paved the way for a successful invasion.
During
fighting in the Korean War, three of the four South Carolina recipients
were presented the honor posthumously. The fourth, Marine Staff
Sergeant Robert Sidney Kennemore of Greenville, miraculously survived
the blast of a grenade on which he had thrown himself to protect
his platoon. Seven native South Carolinians were awarded the Medal
of Honor during American involvement in Vietnam. The last Medal
of Honor action of the Vietnam War occurred on Halloween night 1972,
when Greenville native Petty Officer First Class Michael Edwin Thornton
saved the life of his team leader Lieutenant Thomas Norris. Thornton's
is the rare case of one Medal of Honor recipient receiving the award
for saving the life of another recipient.
