Insurance Committee Insurance Committee Meeting
The meeting focused on the discussion and presentation of RFP 26-47 regarding self-funded health plans, third-party administrator (TPA) services, pharmacy benefit management, and stop-loss insurance. The administration provided rankings and recommendations for carriers and pharmacy benefit managers based on RFP submissions. Key topics included the evaluation of administration fees, implementation credits, pharmacy rebate structures, and the impact of formulary changes. The committee discussed the benefits of being self-insured, which allows for greater control over plan design and customization, and evaluated the performance of current carriers versus potential new vendors. The goal is to implement changes to improve cost-efficiency, with plans for upcoming renewals and implementation strategies to be discussed further.
