Discussion on Health
Insurance Options |
In preparation of
the new year and open enrollment for health insurance, the Board
has recently received several proposals for review and
comparison to the current plan. The objective of today’s meeting
is to determine a plan design and vendor. The proposals were
previously reviewed by the Insurance Committee. County
Organizational Development Director, Andrew Votava, presented
the Board with his comparisons. The current plan is an HSA and
administered by MMO. It was agreed by the Board that they would
like to continue with an HSA. Mr. Votava explained each
proposal received from the various vendors and made his
recommendations. Mr. Short explained that he has done a great
deal of research and made comparisons with other companies and
health care providers and that he feels that the plan that is
currently in place is the best plan he has seen thus far and may
be the only way to keep costs down for all those involved.
After deliberating on cost comparisons, risks involved and the
financial impact on employees and the county, Commissioner
Barnaby made the motion to stay with the current plan but to
eliminate the value plan associated therewith and Commissioner
Short seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
