UPDATE: Brewer v. Middletown: Township Gives Insurance Info To Resident

Last week Middletown released the names of those covered under its self-insured medical plan to resident Lee Brewer. Brewer had requested the names from the township  last July but had to take Middletown to court to have the names of all those covered by the townships medical plan from 2008 through July 2013 released to him.

I reached out to him and asked if there were any names that stood out that he would be comfortable to share with me. He stated that he was still going over the list of names that the township provided but was ready to release anything at the moment. Brewer told me that the lists provided were very basic and were not broken down into years in which an employee participated. The lists only contain the employee names and what type of plan that they are participating in or have participated in (Single, Family, Employee & Spouse...). And there is no reference as to whether or not any of the names provided are current or former employees.  Brewer therefore has some additional work that he needs to do in order to cross reference names to job titles held before he can make any announcements.

I was told one name did standout however and it was Municipal Court Judge Richard Thompson, who has been covered under Middletown's health coverage plan as a "Single" receiver of benefits.

I'm curious what other names will pop up.

The town should be providing all the info for a complete analysis. What have they got to hide? Sounds like some more data requests are overdue.
