Eleven claimants accounted for 61% of Mokena SD 159’s paid health claims, committee told
Summary
Alliant consultants told the Insurance Committee that 11 claimants with claims over $50,000 (Feb. 2025–Jan. 2026) represented 61% of the district’s paid claims, a concentration the packet said helps explain recent premium increases.
During the March 19, 2026 Insurance Committee meeting, an Alliant presentation highlighted that from February 2025 through January 2026 eleven claimants each with claims exceeding $50,000 made up 61% of the district’s total paid claims. That concentration was presented as a major driver of the district’s rising benefits costs.
Committee materials compared that claim experience with an overall trend in insurance spending that rose from $1,543,950 in 2019–2020 to $2,884,542.50 for 2025–2026. The consultant and committee members discussed implications for benefit design and cost management, but the minutes do not record a specific remedial action beyond scheduling further committee meetings to continue the conversation.
