Chase County awards 2026 worker's‑comp contract after bid review
Summary
Commissioners reviewed two bids for worker's compensation coverage and voted to accept the lower bid as presented, awarding the county's 2026 worker's‑comp contract; commissioners discussed premiums, vendor liability and scope of coverage.
County staff presented two bids for Chase County's 2026 worker's compensation coverage, read aloud during the Nov. 17 meeting. The transcript records two bid lines read by staff (identified verbally as "PayWork" and "EMC" with dollar figures conveyed during discussion). Commissioners asked about additional premiums, claim exposure and vendor warranty implications.
After discussion the board voted to accept the bid presented as the lower premium for 2026 and the chair announced the motion carries. The public transcript records voice votes rather than a roll‑call tally.
Commissioners and attendees thanked the bidding representatives and moved on to other agenda items. The record does not include a full printed contract or the procurement file; staff will finalize contract documents according to county procurement rules.
