AT&T Ameritech
/SBC Retirees - We are AASBCR®
What We Do
What we do.......
Provide assistance
to members who have benefit questions or are having problems
working with 3rd party administrators of AT&T benefits. When necessary we
present issues and anomalies to AT&T HR management for interpretation and
resolution.
Maintain a
relationship with AT&T HR in order to understand AT&T policies
and to communicate retiree issues to AT&T, when required to resolve
retiree and benefit issues.
Support AT&T in
delivering profitable products and services to the market
place. A strong profitable AT&T is an absolute requirement for continued
retiree benefits.
Provide you with
automatic membership in the NRLN (National Retiree Legislative
Network) which lobbies Congress for legislation that protects and benefits
retirees.
We also provide
"Breaking News" to
members about threats to benefits, shrinkage of benefits and the negative
and positive effects of legislation on retiree benefits using the following
tools.
Email "Legislative
Ledgers" for all legislative news reports, affecting retirees,
on the national and state scene. Additionally we report NRLN initiatives
and achievements, not covered by direct NRLN communiqués, related to all
or any AASBCR® members' benefits (Health Care, Dental, Vision, Pension,
Life Insurance, other).
Email "Blue
Bulletins" when there are news items, changes or advice for
members related to AASBCR® members' Health Care Benefits.
Email "News
Registers" for news items of interest to retirees which are not
covered by Blue Bulletins or Legislative Ledgers and responses to
frequently asked AASBCR® members' questions.
Email "Letters from
the President" for special messages from the President of the
AASBCR® Board to the membership.
Email and Publish a
"Quarterly Newsletter" to keep you informed about what the
AASBCR® is doing on your behalf to fight for and protect your AT&T retiree
benefits.
Maintain this
AASBCR® website with internet links to valuable information
useful to our members.
