Insurance Updates -May 2010

Pierce County Chapter Secretary-Treasurer Rachel Wiseman and Local 17 Union Representative Roberta Burnett attended the May 27 insurance committee meeting.

The broker reported that a Request for Proposal (RFP) for 2011 insurance coverage was sent to the insurance companies and was due back on June 11. A subcommittee of Labor and Management has been formed to review the initial proposals to narrow the field to three or four. Local 17 has a seat on that subcommittee.

This information will then be brought to the entire committee. As of the May 27 meeting, Blue Cross, Aetna, Group Health, Premera, United and Regence have indicated they will submit a proposal. Cigna remains unsure if it will submit a proposal.

Once the proposals are received, we will have a better understanding of what the 2011 rates for insurance will be. The proposals will also serve as a renewal rate from Regence. The Teamsters 2011 renewal rates will be available in October.

The Teamsters plan also now offers the Group Health option with no additional premium share. Your leadership team is recommending that towards the end of the year, when we know more about how all the rates are set, the Chapter will vote again on staying with Pierce County of switching to the Teamsters plan. The next insurance committee meeting is scheduled for June 24.
