Commission schedule
All commissions are expressed as a percentage of paid premium. Agents may elect to split
commissions with other agents and/or enrollment entities who agree to perform mutually agreed
upon enrollment services. The agreed upon commission splits are reflected as a split of premium
and will show as such on the commission statements.
The Workplace Voluntary Benefit plans listed are Vested Commission Policies, as defined in the
Group Producing Agent or Agency Contract and amendments.
After each policy in this Workplace Voluntary Benefits Commission Schedule is a number, usually
four or five digits, in parenthesis. This number is the policy form number which is found on the
policy and the marketing materials for the policy. Commissions shall be paid based upon the policy
number as identified in this Workplace Voluntary Benefits Commission Schedule.
Variations on commissions:
In order to be flexible in the workplace market, we have three separate commission variations on many
of our products. The Agent is allowed to select what type of commission payment they would like to
have per group by indicating their selection on the New Case Commission Amendment (Form 4413).
Standard or high/low-this is the normal commissions offered with a high first year and a lower
renewal rate. This allows the most commissions up front to help offset enrollment expenses.
Levelized-this allows the commission stream for an Agent to remain even for a period of time as
defined in this Workplace Voluntary Benefits Commission Schedule. This allows for more stability in
the commission flow for an established Agent.
Combination-this is a mixture of the standard and levelized commissions. This mixture allows for a
higher first year commissions with more level renewal commissions.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
The Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM:
Priscilla Walker, Assitant to City Manager/Human Resources
DATE:
12/1512011
RE:
Continuance of Medical Insurance Brokerage Services by Brown
and Brown
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Commission consider the attached resolution approving
the continuance of Brown and Brown Insurance as the City's medical insurance broker
for the March 2012 plan year.
REASONS:
The City provides for group medical, dental, vision, life/AD&D, and long-term disability
insurance for its employees. In order to ensure we offer the best coverage at the best
price. the City secures an insurance broker to obtain insurance quotes on behalf of the
City.
In 2000 the City selected Brown and Brown Insurance Company to provide medical
insurance broker services. Since that time Brown and Brown has worked diligently to
ensure the City's insurance program meets the needs of the City and city employees
and provides affordable options. Brown and Brown also keeps the City abreast of
current, impending, and new insurance regulations and makes recommendations for
changes as needed. Brown and Brown receives the standard commission as set by the
respective carriers. They do not receive direct compensation from the City.

Staff contemplated issuing an RFP broker services for the March 2012 renewal cycle;
however, after consulting with our independent insurance consultants (Siver and Siver)
we have determined that we do not have sufficient time for the process. Section 62-13 of
the City Code provides that contracts for professional services are exempt from the
competitive bid requirements.
