A CTSI representative presented Grand County's five-year loss analysis, comparing the county to the CTSI pools and identifying top claim drivers. Grand County had 58 claims totaling $1,001,121 for the five-year period (average cost $17,261), according to the presentation; the county's average cost per claim remains below the pool average.
CTSI highlighted that auto-related and legal liability (including arrest-related) claims are primary drivers and recommended enhanced incident-investigation training for supervisors to better identify root causes and contributing factors. The presenter also noted a July state requirement for ambulance operators to complete formal driver training; CTSI offered to support training and loss-control resources. Commissioners asked questions about slip-and-fall trends and indemnity claims; CTSI recommended targeted training and better investigation documentation to reduce exposure.
