12 Background 0% 0% Trend

13 Background Since February 23, 2010 BCC Presentation:  Weekly Medical Plan Oversight Committee Meetings  Multiple staff level meetings  Employee Benefits Committee meetings

14  Background  Challenges  Recommended Strategy  Summary Presentation Outline

15 Challenges  Overall cost of claims is trending at 10.4% and is expected to increase without major plan design changes  Unable to sustain funding for large increases year after year  Need to address total cost of plan and increase share of cost paid by employees

16 Challenges  The County’s premium cost share is more generous than other employers  More evenly share the costs of health insurance premiums  Decrease the overall cost of our health insurance plan Orange County Employees 87% Employer Florida Industry Norm 76% Employer 24% Employees 13%

17 Challenges  Disproportionate cost share for medical services  True costs hidden from both the health care provider and the plan member Average Annual Costs Measure Average Total Cost Employee Co-Pay Average Plan Cost % Spent Annually Primary Care Visits $108$15$938% Specialist Visits $210$25$18523% Ancillary MRI/CT $481 $25 $4561% Home Healthcare $482 $0 $4821% Outpatient Visits $1,159$100$1,05917% Inpatient Visits $13,413$600$12,81325%

18 Challenges Nationally, between 50 and 85 percent of all diseases are linked to the health choices you make. For every 100 employees, many have lifestyle- related health risk factors: Risk FactorNationallyOrange County Overweight or Obese 6680 Diabetes610 Smoke216

19 Challenges Keep Current Plan Major Plan Restructure

20 Challenges $17.2 Million Deficit Revenues / Expenditures If current plan is kept… Millions $107.7M $90.5M

21 Challenges  Premiums will increase by at least 50%  Bi-weekly premium increase as much as $100 for family coverage  Co-pays will increase substantially  Financial challenges will continue to compound If current plan is kept…

22 Challenges  The trend will continue to rise due to the disconnect between cost and awareness  Premiums will continue to increase year after year at very high rates  Coinsurance would be needed for some services  Deductibles would be instituted at some point in the near future If current plan is kept…

23 Challenges Implementing a Major Plan Restructure will…  Lessen premium increases (held to approx. $15 per pay period)  Address the underlying problem to begin to reverse the trend  Create informed consumers  Focus on Wellness and Preventive care

24  Background  Challenges  Recommended Strategy  Summary Presentation Outline

25 Recommended Strategy  Implement a Consumer Driven Health Plan for 2011

26 Recommended Strategy Consumer Driven Health Plan  Preventive Care at 100%  Preventive Medications outside of deductible  Individual Health Savings Account (HSA)  High-Deductible Health Plan  Remove disconnect between the member and the true cost of services

27 Recommended Strategy Two Major Plan Components  HSA Account  Funding Vehicle/Partially Funded  $750/$1,250 County contribution  High Deductible Health Plan  Deductible : $1,500/$3,000  20% Coinsurance  Out of Pocket Max ($3,000/$6,000)

28 Recommended Strategy An HSA is... An account to help you meet your deductible and out of pocket maximum A great investment and savings vehicle Your Money Your Account You Own It You Manage It A Tax Savings Vehicle

29 Recommended Strategy With an HSA, you can... Receive a County contribution if you complete the wellness screening Decide how much you will contribute, if any Earn interest Opt to invest (once balance is over $2k) Take it with you when you leave employment Use it now, or save for later Relax... because the funds rollover year to year

30 Recommended Strategy Deductible  $1,500 Employee Only  $3,000 Family  Amount paid by covered member before plan begins  Member pays full cost of the negotiated rate, until deductible  Can be paid from the HSA

31 Recommended Strategy 20% Co-Insurance  Starts after deductible is met  20% to be paid by member each time a medical service is accessed  80% remaining is paid by the Medical Plan  Can be paid from the HSA

32 Recommended Strategy Out of Pocket Maximum  $3,000 for Employee only  $6,000 for Family  Designed to protect member in the event of a catastrophic illness (safety net)  Once the out of pocket max is met, all services are covered at 100% by the Plan

33  Background  Challenges  Recommended Strategy  Summary Presentation Outline
