The Georgia State Retirees Association (GSRA) is an organization focused on keeping retirees and prospective retirees from all parts of Georgia Government well informed about changes in promised retiree and health insurance benefits.
The benefits provided by State pension and health insurance programs are under constant pressure by legislation and administrative regulation. As a career employee, the State made contractual promises to YOU to provide a pension to meet your post-employment financial needs and a health insurance plan to pay most of your medical bills in exchange for your long and dedicated service.
Constant vigilance is necessary in today’s fast-paced environment to ensure that those promises are kept.
