Spring City approves offering two Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans; buy‑up option requires employee payment
Summary
Commissioners voted to offer either Plan S or Plan P from Blue Cross and Blue Shield to city employees; the minutes note a $81.86 monthly increase tied to the buy‑up option and stipulate employees who choose Plan P will pay the difference.
The Spring City commission voted on Sept. 26, 2024 to proceed with offering either Plan S or Plan P through Blue Cross and Blue Shield for municipal employees. Commissioner Kevin Jenkins moved to proceed and Commissioner Reba Murphy seconded; the motion carried with unanimous Aye votes from all commissioners.
The minutes state that if an employee selects Plan P (the buy‑up plan), the employee will be responsible for paying the difference in premium. The recorded increase in the plan is $81.86 per month; the minutes do not break down employer versus employee cost sharing beyond the buy‑up responsibility, nor do they record an effective date for the change. The minutes were attested by City Recorder Brenda Dodson.
