Board adopts routine plan updates, cancels November meeting and enters closed sessions
Summary
The board approved the 2019 cafeteria plan updates (including increasing the FSA limit to $2,650), voted to cancel the Nov. 9 meeting for an educational forum, and voted unanimously to enter two closed sessions (member appeal and anticipated litigation) and later not to disclose closed-session discussions.
The San Francisco Health Service System board took several formal actions during the meeting, including adoption of routine plan changes, scheduling decisions and motions related to closed sessions.
Cafeteria plan: Chief Operating Officer Mitchell Griggs presented the 2019 cafeteria plan document and summarized a few changes: update of the executive director's name to Abby Yant, an IRS-mandated increase in the healthcare FSA annual maximum to $2,650, and a clarification adding a healthcare or dependent-care FSA termination clause for participants who do not make required contributions. A commissioner moved to adopt the changes as presented; the motion was seconded and passed unanimously.
Meeting schedule: The board unanimously voted to cancel the regular November 9, 2018 board meeting and instead hold an educational forum; staff confirmed the October meeting will include the strategic-plan action item.
Closed session votes: The board moved into closed session on a member appeal and separately for a conference with legal counsel regarding anticipated litigation; both motions were seconded and passed. Following the closed sessions, the board voted unanimously not to disclose any discussion or action taken in closed session under San Francisco Administrative Code 67.12 and Government Code 54957.1.
Records: All motions on action items on the public agenda were adopted by recorded unanimous voice votes.
