    Benefits Consortium VOLUME 5, ISSUE 2 From the Desk of the Executive Director Thanks! for picking up this newsletter. It contains information you can use to address your health risks. For example, as Anthem was reviewing our 2013 summary claims statistics with the Board of Directors, it noted an increase in the delivery of wellness services to our covered fe- males and dependent children. This was welcomed news. However, it reported a gap in preven- tive care services requested by our male participants. Men, please be reminded (see page 2) that the time to develop a Primary Care Physician relationship is before you get sick. I recently heard a rule of thumb that serious illnesses commonly progress to 50% of their end state before show- ing any symptoms … that’s why we men need to seek PREVENTIVE care. Tim Klopfenstein, Secondly, please be aware that due to persistent service shortfalls, the Board has terminated our FSA, CERA contract with Viridian Health Management, effective immediately. One of the program compo- Executive Director nents we highly value is one-on-one health coaching.

DESCRIPTORS Academic Achievement; *Community Colleges; *Educational Trends; Higher Education; *Information Dissemination; Student Educational Objectives; Student Needs; *Student Responsibility; *Transfer Programs; *Transfer Students IDENTIFIERS *Virginia Community College System ABSTRACT This annual publication presents articles on topics that were included in the 1996-97 action plan of the Virginia State Committee on Transfer (SCT), and sets the stage for the committee's work in the coming year. It presents four articles that are designed to increase understanding of student responsibilities in getting accurate transfer information, how to use the transfer module to select courses for transfer, how electronic databases can be used to facilitate transfer, and how community colleges asses the success of their transfer students. It opens with an examination of transfer, and provides an update of the current ease of transfer from the community colleges and Richard Bland College to four-year colleges and universities in Virginia. The transfer module is an excellent advising tool for students who begin classes at a Virginia Community College System institution without a clear sense of their future educational plans.
