E. Office of Management and Budget <br /> 9:04 1. Health Insurance Financial Update and Summary of Cost Saving <br /> a.m. Options <br /> (memorandum dated January 25, 2016) 75=80 <br /> Management and Budget Director Jason Brown provided <br /> background and analysis on the County's health insurance <br /> program and the expenditures associated with it. He voiced <br /> concerns over the projected cost increases in healthcare and <br /> introduced potential cost saving options for the Board to <br /> consider. <br /> Commissioner O'Bryan questioned Sheriff Deryl Loar about <br /> his prescription source for the inmates. He also requested <br /> staff to: (1) provide details on the savings for a stand-alone <br /> pharmacy; (2) present comparisons of what Martin County <br /> did with their wellness clinics; and (3) show what the School <br /> District had done with their initiation of a wellness clinic and <br /> its successes. He also wanted to see the cost of healthcare be <br /> more transparent and for there to be an incentive program <br /> for employees who choose to use lower cost options. <br /> Chairman Solari asked staff to bring to the Board options <br /> that would provide the best package for the County and its <br /> employees. He believed a wellness program would be <br /> beneficial to the County and community. He liked the idea of <br /> an outside clinic and pharmacy, but wanted more <br /> information on what the cost savings would be. <br /> Bob Johnson, Coral Wind Subdivision, suggested staff check <br /> to see what the hospital pharmacy could provide. <br /> John O'Connor, President of the International Association of <br /> Firefighters Local 2201 (Union) supported the wellness <br /> initiative. He reported that the Firefighters have their own <br /> program, and said he would be willing to share information <br /> with staff. <br /> The Board's CONSENSUS was for staff to return to the <br /> Board with more information. <br /> 10:10 2.
