Jones County Commissioners approve TAC health insurance renewal with 6.5% increase
Summary
The Jones County Commissioners Court approved renewal of the Texas Association of Counties health insurance through Blue Cross Blue Shield with a 6.5% premium increase after a presentation by Robert Mills.
Jones County Commissioners on June 8 approved a renewal of the Texas Association of Counties (TAC) health insurance plan through Blue Cross Blue Shield that includes a 6.5% premium increase. The renewal was presented by Robert Mills and passed on a unanimous vote.
The contract renewal was discussed during the court’s regular meeting. Commissioner Joel Spraberry moved to approve the TAC health insurance renewal as presented; Commissioner Roy Spalding seconded, and all commissioners voted aye. The county did not record additional amendments to the plan during the meeting.
Why it matters: The renewal affects county employee and retiree coverage and the county’s benefits budget. County officials cited the presented increase amount during their consideration. The court’s approval authorizes staff to proceed with the policy renewal under the presented terms.
The court handled the item as part of routine business and did not place further conditions on the renewal. The meeting proceeded to other agenda items after the unanimous vote.
