The Benefits Oversight Group has reviewed all materials relevant to the renewal of the group medical, dental,
vision, life and long term disability plans and has voted to make the following recommendations to the
Superintendent:
Group Medical - Coverage to be renewed with United Healthcare under an Administrative Services Only
agreement. This will change the underlying structure of the funding mechanism for the program from
fully-insured to partially self-funded. It is further recommended that aggregate and specific stop loss
insurance be secured through Sirius America Insurance Company to facilitate the operation of the self-
funded program.
Group Vision - Coverage to be renewed with EyeMed. The agreement will be renewed at the existing rate
for a period of four years with no changes to the plan.
Group Long Term Disability - Acentria, employee benefits broker for OCSD, sought competitive bids for
LTD coverage and presented the same for consideration of BOG members. The BOG voted to accept the
offer from Standard Insurance Company that included an approximate 20% reduction in premiums.
Short Term Disability - Acentria presented the additional lines of coverage offered by Standard Insurance
Company, and the BOG recommends approval of this voluntary plan as a new employee benefit offering.
Accident - This voluntary coverage was included in the package of benefits offered by Standard Insurance
Company and recommended by the BOG for approval.
Critical Illness- This voluntary coverage was included in the package of benefits offered by Standard
Insurance Company and recommended by the BOG for approval.
Hospital Indemnity- This voluntary coverage was included in the package of benefits offered by Standard
Insurance Company and recommended by the BOG for approval.
HRA/FSA - Acentria sought competitive bids for Healthcare Reimbursement Arrangement and Flexible
Spending Account providers. The BOG selected Saltmarsh, Cleaveland and Gund and recommends
approval of the proposed agreement.
Group Medicare Advantage - Medicare eligible retirees or will now be offered a Medicare Advantage PPO
Plan through United Healthcare. This is a voluntary program with no cost to the District.
As you may recall, the dental plan was presented earlier this year and plan rates and coverage will continue as
approved through December 31, 2025.
