Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, that's one of the areas of our dispute in negotiations with the federal government. We provide a higher level of benefits than they are prepared to cover in medications, especially in their non-insured health benefits. That is one of the challenges as we look at supplementary health benefit programs. How do we rationalize and integrate the service, so that we have the same high level of service for all our citizens? Right now, there are discrepancies. It's an issue we recognize. The Member has made an appropriate observation that there is a difference and it's one of the challenges we are trying to deal with as we look at moving the supplementary health review forward. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
