HR says switch to Regence produced one-time premium holiday and savings
Summary
HR presented revenue and expense data and said the county realized a one-time medical premium holiday when it moved to Regence, producing a $126,427 miscellaneous reimbursement and reported no active HR requests for the meeting.
The county's human-resources overview noted goods-and-services reimbursements for personnel services and a one-time miscellaneous medical reimbursement tied to a change in carriers. Deborah said the reimbursements totaled $126,427 and clarified the figure was a non-recurring benefit from the move to Regence.
A staff member added employee feedback has been largely positive about the Regence medical plan though some local dental-provider changes have occurred; the board said it will consider whether to break dental coverage out separately if the issue persists.
