Review minutes from previous meeting
Motion to approve minutes- Donna Skidmore & Second - Phil Smith
Mr. Long asked if there were any questions - none were asked.
Ms. Young reviewed plan performance materials.
Ms. Young indicated the EPO and PPO combined loss ratio is at 91%
Mr. Long stated one of the claimants over $300k are on COBRA and should fall off in a couple months.
Mr. Long indicated the "old" HMO was fully insured. The 2024 EPO plan is self funded - which in turn means the City
is no longer paying United Healthcare profits.
Ms. Young indicated that the medical and pharmacy cost details are right in line with the 50/50 split
Mr. Fina asked if prescription savings are out there yet.
Ms. Young Yes, but are a wash as rebates are going away. Yet, still cost savings on diabetic prescriptions.
Ms. Young shared the rolling (paid plans by month) 12 month trend analysis for actives.
Ms. Young stated we are seeing the annual cost per employee decrease with implementation of the EPO plan
Mr. Slaff asked what is the monthly premiums plan cost share by the City.
Mr. Long replied, the PPO is a 80/20 split and the EPO plan is 85/15 split.
Mr. Slaff asked what is the timeline to qualify for benefits.
Mr. Long stated if hired after 2017 NO health benefits are offered as a retiree.
Ms. Young reviewed the Individual Stop Loss Renewal for 2025 slides.
Mr. Long stated that our Stop Loss at $300k is significantly lower than other competitors in the market.
Mr. Mahoney as what are our reserves and what other cities are self-funded?
Ms. Young stated she does not have the numbers with her, but can bring what our reserves are and what other cities are
self-funded to the next meeting.
Mr. Mahoney said he would like that.
Mr. Long mentioned he would like the JIC to be involved in the Stop Loss discussions or definitely have a voice.
Mr. Long spoke of 2025 Open Enrollment and asked the committee if they wanted to see anything for the December
meeting and there was no responses.
