| BACKGROUND: |
Presently, we are trending to spend $21,070,257 for this Fiscal year in claims. We still have August and September to pay and our claims vary each month. Since January 2018, we have had monthly claims as high as $2,102,587 and as low as $1,621,977. We want to ensure the money is available for any influx in claims, since it is the end of the Fiscal year. Our utilization (claims vs. premiums) for this Fiscal year is running approximately 97%. This includes stop/loss and administrative premiums, claims, clinic operational costs, and benefit staffing costs. In October, we increased our eligibility by approximately 120 employees when Mass Transit became part of the County’s medical program.
