MEMORANDUM
<br />To: The Honorable Mayor and City Commission
<br />From: Christopher J. Russo, City Manager
<br />Date: February 4, 2002
<br />Re: EMPLOYEE HEALTH INSURANCE
<br />SUBMISSIONS:
<br />City Commission
<br />David Samson, Mayor
<br />Danny Iglesias, Vice Mayor
<br />Norman S. Edelcup, Commissioner

<br />Richard Brown- Morilla, City Clerk
<br />On December 10, 2001, after a formal RFP process, the City opened bids submitted for City
<br />Employee Health Insurance. Three brokers submitted bid proposals for five different health care
<br />providers (each with various health plan options):
<br />1) Axa, Inc.; Neighborhood Health Partnership, Inc.
<br />2) Brown & Brown, Inc.; Aetna, Blue Cross -Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana
<br />3) Resource One, Inc.; Aetna
<br />RECOMMENDATION:
<br />It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution accepting the employee
<br />health insurance bid from the Aetna Insurance Company submitted by the broker Brown & Brown,
<br />Inc.
<br />REASONS:
<br />The City will remain with Aetna which will allow employees to retain their current Aetna doctors
<br />albeit in a less rich, and less costly (to the City), health care plan. The plan is a "duel option"
<br />HMO /POS plan; an HMO plan paid by the City (100% employee cost and 50% dependent cost)
<br />and an optional "pay up" POS plan (the difference in cost is paid by the employee).
