Mr. Dorfman was killed on January 20 1
1983.
On February 1, 1983, the Fund took over its
own claims processing. In my view/that was the most
significant day in the history of the Fund. The end
result of litigation brought by the Fund and the Depart­
ment of Labor against the Dorfman interests was a re­
covery by the Fund of $6.4 million.
In addition, we have established an internal
administration that is widely regarded as superior.
And I think it's regarded in various health benefit and
pension benefit plans around the country. And we have
many people come look at our plans now.
We have installed thirty professional managers
in every department of the Fund. For example, our
finance director is a former partner of Arthur Young.
Our general counsel is the former Chief Justice of the
Missouri Supreme Court.
We have in Ron Kubalanza, our operations
director, I will tell you, one of the finest health care
executives in this country. We have effective cost
control centers in every department. We continue to
make great progress in our auditing efforts. We have
placed great emphasis on internal auditing. And our
internal auditor is a former Price Waterhouse partner.
