Calvert council approves continued Blue Cross Blue Shield coverage amid premium increase

City Council, City of Calvert · June 23, 2025

Summary

The Calvert City Council voted to continue its health insurance with Blue Cross Blue Shield at increased rates effective July 1, 2025, and asked staff to seek new quotes in October at the fiscal-year end.

The Calvert City Council on June 23 voted to continue the city's employee health plan with Blue Cross Blue Shield, accepting a premium increase that takes effect July 1, 2025. Council Member Jan Walston made the motion to "approve of continuing with our current health provider Blue Cross Blue Shield at the increased rates effective July 1, 2025," and Council Member Bobbie Jean Alford seconded; the motion carried unanimously after the council returned from executive session.

The move follows executive-session deliberations about employee health-benefit options and directs staff to solicit competing quotes in October 2025, at the end of the fiscal year. Council members framed the decision as a continuity measure while allowing time to seek alternative proposals; no dollar figures for the premium increase were presented in the meeting record.
