16 Factors Affecting Costs

17 10 Year Medical Expense Trend NEW PPO

18 Business Services MUSIC  Western participates in the Michigan University Self-Insurance Corporation or (MUSIC) which has enabled WMU to realize significant savings in premiums in all major lines of Property and Casualty insurance.  As a charter member of MUSIC WMU has received back over $3,000,000 dollars in dividends as well as enjoys broad coverage and premium payments well below what would be available in the traditional markets

19 Physical Plant Long-term Cost Avoidance Initiatives  Since 1996, Maintenance Services has initiated 55 different energy conservation projects.  These projects have resulted in a reduction of 78,147,145 Kwh, 617,177,519 lbs. of steam, and 540,040 cubic feet of water.  This reduction has provided WMU the equivalent of avoiding $16,498,275 of utility expenditures.

20 Physical Plant Long-term Cost Avoidance Initiatives  Since 1988, Maintenance Services has expanded the Computerized Energy Management System, and, since 1995, expanded the Central Elevator Computer Monitoring System.  This also has resulted in the need to hire fewer maintenance staff, even as the campus has added a significant amount of square footage.
