1 Group Health Insurance Plan Expected Claims Liability Administration and Professional Fees Specific Stop Loss (SSL) Aggregate Stop Loss (ASL)

2 Plan Highlights For the first time, 2014-15 budget projections include costs for dental claims and administration, flex plan costs, and new Affordable Care Act (ACA) taxes/fees estimated at approximately $50,000. These projected costs total $366,240*. With the exception of ACA taxes, these are costs which have been paid annually by the plan and now included in this presentation for a comprehensive total for the benefit package.

3 An “integrated PBM” model was implemented as part of a change to Catamaran RX as Pharmaceutical Benefit Manager. Prescription drug data is now integrated into overall plan data improving case management outcomes. Early projections of savings resulting from this change were estimated at $14,000 monthly. This change was made June 1, 2013 but savings to date are immature. Plan Highlights (continued)

4 Expected health claims liability is $3,865,100, compared to original projections of $3,327,435 in 2013-2014. This represents an increase of 16%. Large health claims have had significant impact on overall plan performance in last year. 1% of claimants represent 31% of total paid claims. $1,031,504 was spent on 11 participants during the current contract year to date. 93% of plan participants had claims under $3,000.

5 Based upon last year’s decision to accept a $100,000 Specific Stop Loss Deductible, the City qualified for a Premium Recovery Plan. Estimated recovery to date is $52,000. Recovery is available as premium credit to be applied against the next contract period stop loss premium. Plan Highlights (continued)
