Administrative Services Fee
Wellmark has presented their Administrative Services Fee renewal that will go into
effect on July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. The following is a comparison between
the Fiscal Year 2018 Administrative Services Fee and the proposed Administrative '
Services Fee for Fiscal Year 2019:
Cost Per Month Per Contract
7/1/2017 to 6/30/2018 7/1/2018 to 6/30/2019
Administrative Ex ense $34.99 $35.06
PBM Administrative Fee $0.00 $2.00
Network Access Fee $6.95 $8.03
Based on the 563 contacts, the Fiscal Year 2019 Administrative Services Fee is
$304,628. The Fiscal Year 2018 Administrative Services Fee, based on 576 contracts,
is $289,889. The annual increase in the administrative services fee for Fiscal Year 2019
is $14,73�.
Stop Loss Insurance �
Wellmark, our current stop loss carrier, and Optum, Symetra, HM Insurance Group,
Sunlife and Voya were asked to provide quotes for specific and aggregate stop loss
insurance. Only Wellmark provided a quote. Optum and Symetra declined to quofie. HM
Insurance Group and Sunlife did not submit a quote. Voya stated they could not provide
a completive bid. I recommend that Wellmark be selected as the specific and aggregate
stop loss carrier for the health and prescription drug plans effective July 1, 2018 through
June 30, 2019. The specific stop loss amount of $120,000 will remain the same. The
following is a summary of the new rates and current rates:
1
Cost Per Month Per Contract
7/1/2017 to 6/30/2018 7/1/2018 to 6/30/2019
Individual Sto Loss $79.89 $82.63
A re ates Sto Loss $2.38 $2.38
Based on 563 contracts, the Fiscal Year 2019 stop loss insurance cost will be $574,328.
The Fiscal Year 2018 stop loss insurance cost, based on 576 confiracts, is $568,650.
The annual increase in the stop loss insurance for Fiscal Year 2019 is $5,678. The
requested action is for the City Council to pass a motion approving the proposal
submitted by Wellmark effective July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019 for administrative
services fees and specific and aggregate stop loss insurance for the City's health and
prescription drug plan. �
Wellmark has issued a binder to make sure there is no lapse in coverage on July 1,
2018
