AGENDA ITEM: Employee Health Insurance
SUBMITTED BY: George Foster, Human Resource Manager
DATE: July 15, 2011
BACKGROUND: On July 12, 2011 the City Commission held a workshop to review
employee health insurance options. At this workshop, two health insurance plans (attached) were
identified by the Commission to be further considered at the July 25, 2011 Commission meeting.
The first plan has two funding options with the second plan having one funding option.
SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCE POLICY: In addition to health insurance, the City has
identified a Major Medical Complement insurance policy currently being provided to the
employees of Jacksonville Beach and Neptune Beach through Allstate that will pay employee
deductibles and co -pays with premiums based upon an employee's coverage and age. Although
this is not the solution to the ever rising health insurance premiums, it is an option that we desire
to provide to our employees on an optional employee paid basis. For example, an "employee
only" annual $4,000 Hospital Confinement and a $2,000 Outpatient benefit, would cost an
employee under the age of 40 approximately $17 per month and an employee over the age of 50
approximately $38 per month.
FUNDING: If approved, funds for this action will be included within the 2011/2012 budget.
ACTIONS REQUESTED:
1. That City Commission authorizes providing employees with an optional Major Medical
Complement policy as provided by Jacksonville Beach and Neptune Beach.
2. That the City Commission advises as to what employee health insurance option is to be
utilized effective 10 /01 /11 (see attached).
