PURPOSE: To update the Board of Commissioners on the status of The Archer Company pay
study and current employee benefits and to receive feedback on potential benefit
recommendations for the January 1, 2009 plan year.
BACKGROUND
Archer Pay and Classification Study
The Pay and Classification Study with The Archer Company was approved by the Board in
October 2007. The Archer Position Questionnaire was developed and training classes were
held with all employees in November of 2007. Employees completed their respective position
questionnaires and the results were reviewed by the respective departmental management
teams and Human Resources staff prior to forwarding to The Archer Company.
From the completed questionnaires, job descriptions were developed and submitted to the
County for review and comment by appropriate employees, supervisors, department directors
and Human Resources. These reviewed and revised job descriptions were then returned to
the Archer Company. The job descriptions are currently being incorporated into The Archer
Company salary and classification matrix, and Archer representatives will be meeting with
Human Resources staff in mid-September to share the results. County staff will continue to
work with Archer to ensure accuracy and address any necessary revisions. The FY 08-09
Budget does not provide funding for recommended implementation. Implementation costs have
been estimated for the FY 09-10 budget of $4,100,000.

Benefits
The Human Resources Department and other County staff annually review the County
employee benefits package and advise the Manager regarding a recommendation to the Board
on benefit plans that become effective for the next calendar year. In the past there have been
relatively few design changes to employee benefit plans. The cost for benefits provided by the
County such as dental care, term life insurance, employee assistance, flex spending and 401 k
have remained fairly consistent.
Costs associated with the County Health Care plan, currently with CIGNA provided through the
North Carolina Association of County Commissioners (NCACC) pool, has consistently
increased. Significant premium increases over the last several years have made it difficult for
the County to continue coverage at the same plan level and employees face increased costs for
dependent coverage. A driving factor in this increase is the County practice to pay the entire
employee premium and a significant amount of dependent care coverage. Currently, the
County pays $445.06 or $522.08 each month for Employee Only coverage. Because health
insurance is such an essential part of the total compensation package that attracts and retains
employees, input from Commissioners will assist in formulating recommendations for this year's
plan as well as establish a direction for the future.
The current County benefits include:
Term Life/Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance
The County has provided for many years an employer-paid life insurance benefit at the
employee's annual salary (rounded to the next thousand dollars) with a maximum benefit of
$50,000. An employee also has the option to purchase additional coverage. Effective January
2008, MetLife became the carrier for athree-year contract. The Plan design for 2009 has no
changes. The County pays 22.5 cents for every thousand dollars of coverage per month for life
and accidental death and dismemberment insurance.
Dental Insurance
The County provides aself-insured dental plan with Delta Dental of N.C. serving as the third
party administrator. Premiums earned in FY 07-08 were $443,500 and claims and fees paid
were $368,800. The dental plan's fund balance at the end of FY 07-08 was in excess of
$300,000. There is no increase in Delta Dental's administrative fee of $2.00 per member per
month.
All claims are paid based on a Table of Allowances (TOA) which Orange County establishes.
Although the County reimburses preventative services at 100% of the TOA, the current Table
has lagged behind standard rates of reimbursement, causing employees to pay an increasing
amount for services. This has reduced the value of the benefit and only a third of employees
are taking advantage of the preventive and diagnostic care.
Staff reviewed the TOA and identified the most common preventive and diagnostic services that
could be reimbursed at the Maximum Payable Amount (MPA). Attachment 1 provides a
comparison of the current and proposed TOA. Based on experience, this change will increase
the County's claims by approximately $48,000 annually and can be absorbed by the current
funding over the next several years. Attachment 2 is a projection showing that the Dental Fund
will continue to be adequately funded over five years. Staff will continue to regularly monitor the
dental fund.
Flexible Compensation Plan
The County provides a Section 125 Flexible Compensation Plan administered by Tucker
Administrators. This Plan consists of a tax sheltering of health and dental premiums and two
Flexible Spending Accounts (a medical spending account and dependent/child care spending
account). These accounts enable employees to save money and increase their take home
pay by eliminating income taxes and Social Security taxes on contributions employees make to
the Spending Accounts. It also allows the County to reduce payroll taxes on employee
contributions. Employees effect these reductions in taxes by setting aside a specific amount of
funds into a spending account that are used for health related and/or dependent care expenses,
resulting in a tax savings for both the employee and the County.
The maximum contribution employees may currently make to the Medical Spending Account is
$2,600 each benefit year. Federal regulations allow employees to contribute $3,000.
Maximizing the amount of potential contributions allows Orange County to take full advantage of
all possible tax savings. The County maximum allowable contribution to the Dependent/Child
Care Spending Account is already at the Federal maximum of $5,000 per year.
An enhancement to the 2009 Plan incorporates a new debit card feature which enables
employees to pay for expenses at time of service with the funds from their accounts. This
enhancement will increase employee participation in the Flexible Compensation Plan.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Magellan Behavioral Health provides the County's EAP for County employees and their
dependents. This benefit includes a number of services such as confidential assessment and
counseling services, 24/7 emergency services, and legal consultation. Several changes that
would greatly enhance the EAP can be made with an increase in cost of 7 cents per month per
employee which would bring the overall cost to $1.61 per employee per month. The 2009
recommendation includes increasing the number of counseling sessions from three to five, the
removal of the LifeManagement Resource and Referral Service, and the addition of financial
consultation services to the legal consultation services. The Resource and Referral Service
provides members with referrals for dependent or senior care, and is duplicated by County
departments. Increasing the number of counseling sessions will allow employees more
treatment and a greater continuity of care in dealing with personal, emotional and financial
issues. The EAP is a complement to services provided through the County Health Plan at no
cost to employees.
Health
Currently the County offers two fully insured health insurance plans. Both health plans are
contracted through the NCACC Health Insurance Trust and administered by CIGNA. One plan
is a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) that requires participants to use a vendor network
of physicians and facilities. The second plan is a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) that
allows both in and out of network services. When using out-of-network services,. the employee
pays a higher portion of the cost. Both plans offer an in-network wellness benefit at no cost,
which includes physicals, health screenings and immunizations. The current number of
employees enrolled in each plan, rate changes, and plan changes to the health insurance are
shown on Attachment 3.
Staff has considered several options for the 2009 plan year that will stay within .the 8% increase
budgeted for FY 08-09. The health care trend (percentage increase in claims costs that
actuaries expect to see in the next 12-month period) would require a premium increase of 10-
4
12% over the 2008 rates. Because Orange County's actual medical experience in health care
claims in FY 07-08 was under this 10-12% trend, staff was able to negotiate the renewal rate to
a lower rate than the annual trend. Considerations used in preparing the renewal rates,
including claims information, is provided at Attachment 4.
The County currently pays the entire monthly premium for employee and retiree only coverage
for both the HMO and PPO plans. The County also subsidizes the premium cost for the
employee's dependent coverage, based on the lower priced plan (which has been the HMO
plan for the past several years). One of the issues facing the County is the pricing for the HMO
has not kept pace with actual claims expenses. The result has been much higher increases for
the PPO, resulting in higher increases for the County and for employees with dependent
coverage.
Staff has reviewed the current plan and two options for the 2009 calendar year renewal. These
are:
Renewal of Current Plan Design-No Changes. Renewing with no change to plan designs
results in an increase to the County of approximately $262,960 for FY 08-09. The County and
members of the PPO with dependents pay a substantially higher proportion of the premiums
compared to the amounts paid per employee for the HMO. PPO employees will also continue
to have higher out of pocket expenses because this plan has a maximum out of pocket cost of
$1,000/year per member (to a maximum of $3000 per family).
Option 1 Buy up Plan. This option delivers the same plans, but requires employees to pay an
additional premium for the higher priced plan. For the first time, the HMO would be the higher
priced plan, and consequently, if employees currently in the HMO wished to continue in this
plan, they would have to pay an additional premium. Costs to the County would stabilize and
the existing gap between pricing would be rectified. Because of the low claims in FY 07-08, this
is a good year to consider actions that will close the gap between the HMO and PPO pricing.
Should the County be faced with a high claims year, the cost of premiums could easily jump to
over 25%, as it did in FY 04-05, and the dependent's premium would be priced out of reach of
many employees. Implementing a "buy-up" plan in a year when employees received a 2.25%
increase COLA and have seen increased gas prices would not be well received, but it would
help the County control its health insurance costs.
This option would result in an increase for the County of approximately $224,000 for FY 08-09.
The increase in premiums for employees would be $79,510, assuming that only 25% of
employees (based on NCACC projections) chose to stay with the HMO and pay the additional
monthly premium. Currently 93% of employees participate in the HMO. Only those employees
who chose the PPO would see a smaller increase in premiums, but they would see higher out
of pocket increases, if such services were required.
Option 2 One Plan. This option is a renewal with only a PPO plan. It eliminates the HMO plan,
and all participating employees would be able to access providers both in and out of network.
This plan would affect employees with major medical expenses by requiring a 5% co-insurance,
up to a maximum of $500 per member ($1500 for a family) per year. This is an improved
benefit for current PPO members, who currently have a $1000 per member co-insurance
maximum, but less of a benefit for current HMO members who have $0 co-insurance.
5
This option would result in an increase for the County of approximately $195,660 for FY 08-09.
The increase in premiums for employees would be a significantly lower amount than renewing
the plan with no change.
Advantages and disadvantages of the renewal and options are shown on Attachment 5. A
more detailed breakdown of the current plan and each of the options are also included in
Attachment 6.
The County and employee premium rates continue the current 52.0% dependent subsidy.
When applicable, this is based on the lower cost Plan. Continuation of the subsidy at this level
maintains a "family friendly" policy offered by the County that is highly valued by the 45% of
employees with dependent coverage, however, it does present an equity issue for employees
without dependent coverage. This policy provides health insurance coverage for dependents
(spouse, domestic partner, children, or entire family) more affordable, and thus, accessible. It
particularly benefits lower salaried employees for whom dependent health insurance coverage
is a significant cost.
An added component of the health insurance for all options is Health Advisor, a CIGNA
program which provides each healthy and at-risk employee with a health coach who can assist
an employee in improving his or her health. This opportunity is incorporated into each option.
Additionally, Orange County has partnered more closely with NCACC to resurrect the Wellness
Committee and wellness activities. Because healthier employees have a higher quality of life,
are more productive, and require less health care, wellness activities will continue to be an
important benefit for County employees and retirees.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
During this Work Session, the Human Resources Director plans to share fiscal information
related to health insurance options. The 2009 Benefit Recommendations all meet the County
budget for FY 08-09.
Term Life: There is no budget impact. Premiums will remain the same for 2009.
Dental: There is no budget impact in the FY 08-09 approved budget. Premiums will remain the
same for 2009. The proposed changes will reduce the balance in the dental account over time.
Projections for the use of funds for the next five years are provided in Attachment 2. This is a
conservative projection, with assumptions of increases in both premiums and claims. No
administrative increases are anticipated at this time.
Flexible Spending Account: This is within the FY 08-09 approved budget. There is a potential
for tax savings, based on the amount of contributions employees make of a minimum 7.65
cents savings for both the County and the employee for each $1.00 contributed). Losses are
possible when an employee claims and receives funds prior to making the full contribution, and
then leaves County employment prior to fulfilling their obligation to the Medical Spending
Account for the plan year ($30.60/per employee contributing at the maximum).
Employee Assistance Pro rq am: This is within the FY 08-09 approved budget. The contract
renewal is at a rate of $1.61 per employee per month, which includes a 7 cents per month
increase from the previous plan year. The estimated annual cost for the EAP is $15,456,
including a projected increase of $675 a year ($337.50 for FY 2008-09) for the added services.
The recommended changes are within the amount allocated in the FY 08-09 budget.
Health: Within the FY 08-09 approved budget. With the Commissioners' input, the Manager
will be able to determine the fiscal impact of the recommended option for the FY 08-09 Budget.

WHAT OUR RECENT CLAIMS SHOW
Atta ent 4
ro
1. 56% of total claim costs are incurred by members between ages of 40 - 64. This is consistent in
counties across the State. Given that our employee's average age is 41, we can expect to see
costs continue to rise because of employee and retiree age.
2. There was a 25% increase in cost of Dependent claims for both Family and EE + Spouse tiers.
3. Prescription claim costs remains stable, however, prescriptions are 26% of total claim costs at
$1,755,361 over past 12 months (average is 18% - 20% in other NC counties). Increasing use of
the Mail Order Program would reduce Orange County's prescription costs.
4. The Top 3 Diagnostic Categories are conditions which can frequently be helped with
improvements in lifestyle: exercise and nutrition:
A. Musculoskeletal claims = $846,727
B. Digestive claims = $613,359
C. Circulatory claims = $444,405
5. Top 3 Maintenance Drugs (those taken daily) also reflect conditions often helped by changes in
lifestyle:
A. Nexium (heartburn and acid reflux)
B. Lipitor (high cholesterol)
C. Actos (diabetes)
6. Low usage of mail-order on prescriptions (4.76%) although better than prior year. Mail Order
saves the Employee a full co-pay every three months for every Rx filled and allows for a larger
rebate from Caremark to NCACC, passed on to Orange County at renewal by reducing total claim
cost when rating.
OTHER FACTORS
1. Net paid claims decreased by $84,790 over prior year.
2. As a result, the renewal will be under the 10% trend (inflationary cost).
3. Overall increase for apples-to-apples renewal is 7.9% ($601,005 more for a full calendar year,
including all costs (retiree, non-General Fund employees).
4. Each option continues the 100% Preventive Care benefits (no co-pays). Every employee and
dependent is able to receive a complete head-to-toe annual exam and blood work at no charge,
as well as age-appropriate screenings (colonoscopy, PSAs, mammograms, immunizations, etc.)
at no cost to the employee. NCACC will continue educational program toward these visits,
helping employees maintain health with a focus on preventing serious, chronic conditions in the
future.
5. Implementation of Cigna's Health Advisor program for all employees is included in each option.
This program provides a personal Health/Wellness Coach to every employee who completes a
Health Risk Assessment and includes proactive outreach to employees with personal one-on-one
coaching. on getting/staying fit. NCACC will assist in communications and awards for getting
Health Risk Assessments completed for program success.
NCACC COUNTY HEALTH PLAN COMMITMENT
(ll
1-. The County will continue Employee Education through Lunch & Learns on utilization of the plan,
being a smart provider/service consumer, Stress management sessions, Nutrition/activity
sessions, Rx mail order education etc. Utilization reports for Orange County determine topics for
these sessions so the areas most significantly driving costs are discussed.
2. Michelle Love from NCACC and Taemi Prapuolenis, Health Education Coordinator for NCACC
County Health Plan, will serve as Co-Chairs for the county Wellness Committee until the vacant
Senior Health Educator position is filled. This will keep the initiative moving forward.
3. Taemi will provide a 16-month calendar of all health/wellness initiatives by month to bring us
through 12131/09. These will be tailored to Orange County specific utilization info and trends
captured.
4. The County and the NCACC will continue educating employees on actual costs of claims and
how individual employees have a role in keeping costs down so that health insurance will face
minimal changes year-to-year.
