GE Global Health Plan participants will now be able to utilize the online Expert Medical Opinion program, as both eCleveland Clinic and Center for Connected Health are able to accept requests from most countries outside of the U.S.

If you or your dependents are diagnosed with a life-changing or life-threatening condition, you want the best care you can get. Through GE's "Expert Medical Opinion" program, you can request a second opinion from leading medical experts at The Cleveland Clinic and Center for Connected Health (affiliates of Harvard Medical School, including Massachusetts General and Brigham and Women's).

With Expert Medical Opinion, you become a patient of a top specialist, without waiting weeks for an appointment or traveling far from home. GE covers the full cost of these services for employees and their dependents enrolled in the GE Global Health Plan.

A second opinion from these medical leaders can confirm or alter a diagnosis or treatment plan, and help you make the best decisions for managing your condition. You'll receive a comprehensive evaluation of your condition, along with treatment recommendations - just as if you saw the doctor in person.

With either Expert Medical Opinion program, you begin online at the program's Web site, where you will be guided step-by-step through the process.

Have you noticed the flags at the gates in Evendale?

Thanks to a best practice from our Madisonville, Ky., facility, the EHS team has implemented a visual notification system to indicate when an OSHA recordable injury occurs. A green flag indicates no OSHA recordable for the past 24 hours and a red flag indicates that an OSHA recordable injury has occurred. To find out more about the new safety notification system and to track when the flag turns red, click here to visit the Evendale EHS website.

Make a pledge each day to a safer work environment, for yourself and your coworkers. Thanks for your efforts and commitment to a better future.

Village of Evendale Tax Adjustments in April / May Paychecks

An email was recently sent about the increase in the Village of Evendale earnings tax rate to 1.2% (up from 9%) that became effective January 1, 2005.

This change was implemented on February 28. As a result, employees did not have sufficient city tax withheld in their January and February paychecks. For those who do not live in areas that have full tax reciprocity with the Village of Evendale, a "catch-up" withholding is required to bring your year-to-date Evendale tax withholding in line with the new 2005 rate.

This is to remind you that the catch-up adjustment will be split over two pay periods, in paychecks for April and May. The adjustment will be displayed under the Evendale tax line on the Pay Summary.
