Insurance consultants Dennis McCormack and Gwen King presented a proposed health-plan structure to the Lincoln County commissioners Oct. 3, recommending the county continue with a partial self-funded plan and select Cigna as the carrier, administrator and reinsurance carrier.

McCormack and King described the benefits of a partial self-funded arrangement for the county and recommended Cigna as the preferred carrier and administrator for the plan.

The consultants’ recommendation will require follow-up action by county decision-makers if commissioners choose to adopt the plan structure and carrier selection.
