Meeting Date:	03/26/2018
Correction to COBRA rates for plan year 2018
Submitted for:	Erika Hernandez	Submitted By:	Erika Hernandez
Department:	Civil Legal Division

Subject:

Discussion and possible action to correct and properly set the COBRA rates for plan year 2018 and authorizing the County Judge to sign any relevant documents; and any other relevant matters thereto.

Issue: The COBRA rates previously set by the former insurance consultant are incorrect and Webb County is unable to collect the proper premium from those employees who separate from the County and elect to remain on the County’s insurance through the COBRA plan.

Solution: Correct and set the rates at the proper premium which is the full premium (employee portion plus employer contribution) plus a 2% administrative cost.

Result: The County will be able to collect the proper premium from those employees who separate from the County.
