Law Enforcement Trust Fund, County Fund 112 — Special Law Enforcement Dear Chairman Flescher: Item #1: The Capital Improvement Plan for fiscal year ending 9/30/2021 has $100,000 allocated to the Correction's Medical Housing Design/Construction. At this time, there are critical improvements that are needed to be done to other areas of the facility, specifically, the kitchen in order to become compliant with Health Department standards.

I respectfully request that the Board of County Commissioners authorize the reallocation of the full $100,000 funds so that these critical improvements can be completed.

Pursuant to the rules of the DOJ, I am requesting that $55,502 from the DEA Equitable Sharing Fund to be used to equip our Special Investigations Unit. Item #3: Florida Statute 932.7055, the Florida Contraband Forfeiture Act, provides that proceeds and interest earned from the forfeiture of real or personal property shall be used for providing additional equipment and may not be used to meet normal operating expenses of the law enforcement agency. These funds are the direct result of our deputies' diligent law enforcement 10 efforts and are derived mainly from drug related offenses. None of the funds are derived from county tax dollars. Pursuant to the above statute; I am requesting that $30,000 from our Law Enforcement Trust Fund be used to purchase law enforcement protective equipment which is essential in the replacement of old, aged out protective equipment.

Brown May 11, 2021 37 Mo DEPARTMENTAL MATTERS INDIAN RIVER COUNTY MEMORANDUM To: Jason Brown County Administrator From: Suzanne Boyll Human Resources Director Date: May 2, 2021 Subject: Addition of SurgeryPlus Benefit as Optional Benefit for Individuals Insured on the County's Group Health Plan Background Indian River County offers a Group Health Plan to eligible employees, retirees and dependents of the Board of County Commissioners, Sheriff's Office, Clerk of Circuit Court, Property Appraiser, Tax Collector and Supervisor of Elections. The plan performance is reviewed throughout the year and opportunities for cost savings and benefit enhancements or modifications are reviewed, evaluated, and presented to the Board of County Commissioners for consideration. Staff has been presented with a program to create an enhanced benefit for our covered members as well as provide a savings to the plan. The program presented for consideration is SurgeryPlus, which is a supplemental benefit for non -emergent surgeries using a national network of Surgeons of Excellence that have been credentialed by SurgeryPlus. The overall goal of the program is to improve quality and outcomes for plannable surgical procedures and also to reduce overall costs to the plan and covered members. Under SurgeryPlus, covered members would have an additional option to choose from when seeking a provider to perform certain non -emergent surgeries. The types of procedures by category are: • Joint replacement & Revision • Spine • Orthopedic • Cardiac • Gynecology • Hernia Repair • Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) • Gastroenterology (GI) • Gallbladder • Thyroid • Pain Management Procedures To qualify as a Surgeon of Excellence, licensed providers must be board certified, be fellowship trained, have no State sanctions, complete a reputational review, and pass a comprehensive malpractice review.. This credentialing process ensures a high level of quality for surgical 38 outcomes, and contracted bundled pricing ensures a savings to the plan and the member versus costs under the PPO network pricing with Florida Blue. The SurgeryPlus network of providers is nationwide, which means that all of our group health plan participants (employees, retirees, and dependents) would have access to obtain services at the SurgeryPlus Centers of Excellence. Group plan participants who are planning a non -emergent surgery would contact SurgeryPlus directly and be provided a full-service member experience as outlined below: Member Experience Critical for Utilization Full -Service Concierge, Driven by Live -Contact The First Contact 0 Engage the member by listening and understanding their needs © Educate the member on their choices, the importance of surgeon selection, and financial incentives Organization © Set clear expectations on next steps and, process The Member Journey Locate Find best fitting Surgeon of Excellence i.... •i�.i Schedule Book appointments & manage logistics {�1"Iv/ Coordinate follow up Bundle service providers Ensure complete & transfer records member satisfaction ---------------------------- Typical case includes 15+ live calls Covered employees, retirees and dependents accessing the Centers of Excellence through SurgeryPlus, will also have reduced out -of- pocket costs due to the waiver of employee cost share (deductible & co-insurance). Approved travel costs and lodging will also be paid and billed according to the terms of the SurgeryPlus program. SurgeryPlus offers three pricing models for their program: 1) Fixed Fee $4.00 PEPM ($3.00 Intro Rate in Year 1) + .25 PEPM marketing fee 2) Hybrid Fee $2.00 PEPM and 15% of coordinated services fee + .25 PEPM marketing fee 3) Variable Fee 35% of coordinated services fee + .25 PEPM marketing fee 39 SurgeryPlus is so confident that this program would result in savings, they are willing to guarantee that savings will be double the value of the fees paid under the program. The greatest potential return on investment (ROI) is under the Fixed Fee model where the plan would experience the full benefit of savings rather than sharing the savings under the Hybrid Fee or Variable Fee model with SurgeryPlus. The estimated first year annual fee is $60,336 under the Fixed Fee model ($3 PEPM). This would increase to $80,448 in the second year ($4 PEPM). The marketing costs would be an additional $5,028 annually ($.25 PEPM based on 1,676 employees/retirees), and robust marketing of the program to members is required in order to secure a savings guarantee. SurgeryPlus anticipates that we will experience a minimum guaranteed initial net savings of $60,336 and that additional savings would be generated as utilization increases. The proposal indicates that a typical savings would be expected between the range of $298K to $695K dependent upon utilization. Use of the SurgeryPlus program is optional and members will have no out-of-pocket costs when utilizing this program. Employees may continue to utilize the Florida Blue group health plan benefits for these planned procedures; however, members choosing to do so will be responsible for out-of-pocket costs (deductibles, copays, and coinsurance). Attached is a sample agreement from the City of Sebring. If approved by the BOCC, staff will negotiate an agreement similar to the terms of the City of Sebring agreement. Once an agreement is reached, covered members would be provided SurgeryPlus communications explaining the SurgeryPlus benefit to include a personalized member card and begin accessing the plan benefits at a date to be determined. Marketing would also occur throughout the year to encourage utilization. Funding Funding for SurgeryPlus administrative fees, claims, and approved travel costs, would be from the group insurance trust. Based on the 2x performance guarantee, the cost of the program would be covered by the overall plan savings that are realized.

Following Provider's initial review of Participant's medical records and information, and subject to a physical examination and medical assessment of Participant, as needed, Provider will confirm to EDH whether or not, in Provider's independent medical opinion, Participant is a suitable candidate for an Episode of Care at a Provider's location, and Provider will advise EDH of the Diagnosis Case Code related to such Episode of Care. Provider will establish treatment protocols for each Episode of Care and modify such protocols for Participant, if needed. Provider will notify EDH of any changes in the Diagnosis Case Code or anticipated Episode of Care. Sponsor shall confirm to EDH that Participant has met any obligations related to a Plan deductible prior to beginning an Episode of Care. 4.2 Patient Scheduling. Upon acceptance of a Participant by a Provider, EDH's confirmation of the Participant's coverage under the Plan, and EDH's receipt of payment from the Participant of the Participant's remaining deductible (if applicable), EDH will coordinate and schedule the services to be provided in connection with the anticipated Episode of Care amongthe Participant, the Provider, and any vendors of Travel Services, if applicable. 4.3 Pricing. (a) Claims. Sponsor shall pay EDH the aggregate sum of all claims, fees, costs, expenses or other charges relating to an Episode of Care which are submitted to EDH by Providers, vendors of Travel Services, or any other:provider of goods or services related to an Episode of Care (each such claim, fee, cost, expense, or charge, a "Claim" and collectively, "Claims'). Any Claim related to medical services rendered by a Provider will be charged by EDH and paid by Sponsor according to the Case Rates or any other pricing terms independently agreed to by EDH and the Provider. EDH.will itemize and fully disclose any Claims in an Invoice (defined below). . (b) EDH Fees. In addition to payment for Claims, each month, Sponsor shall pay to EDH a fee equal to $4.00 per eligible employee of Sponsor (the "Network Use Fee"). During the first year of the Initial Term, Sponsor shall receive a discount on the Network Use Fee. Accordingly, during the first year of the Initial Term only, the Network Use Fee shall be $3.00 per eligible employee of Sponsor. Additionally, each month, Sponsor shall pay EDH a fee for EDH's marketing and implementation services equal to $0.25 per eligible employee of Sponsor (the "Marketing Fee"). The Network Use Fee and the Marketing Fee shall be collectively referred to as the "EDH Fees." The number of eligible employees to be used in calculating the EDH Fees shall be the monthly weighted average of -5- 56 eligible employees of Sponsor according to the Sponsor -provided employee eligibility files of the prior month. EDH will fully disclose the EDH Fees in an Invoice. (c) Changes in Plan Design. Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that, as of the Effective Date, the Plan documents do not include any requirement that EDH and/or the Network be the exclusive source of medical coverage for any procedure or category of medical services (any such requirement in the Plan documents, a "Plan Carveout"). If at any time during the term of this Agreement the Plan documents are amended to include a Plan Carveout other than a Plan Carveout for bariatric medical procedures, then, during the period in which any such Plan Carveout is effective, the method for calculating the Network Use Fee specified in Section 4.3(a) shall be negotiated and agreed to by the parties. 4.4 EDH Savings Guarantee. (a) Guarantee. Within a reasonable time after expiration of the Initial Term (defined below), EDH will compare all Episodes of Care over the Initial Term to Sponsor's actual historical bundled case rates and claims data, where available and applicable, or if not available or applicable, to EDH's observed historical average bundled case rates and claims data (in either case, the "Historical Case Rates'. ). Using the Historical Case Rates determined to be applicable by EDH, EDH will calculate Sponsor's savings during the Initial Term based on the difference between the actual Case Rates paid by Sponsor to EDH during the Initial Term and the Historical Case Rates, avoided complication savings, and avoided procedure savings (the "EDH Savings"). At the end of the Initial Term, EDH will provide Sponsor with a tabulation of the EDH Savings and the Network Use Fees over the Initial Term. Any Network Use Fees paid by Sponsor in excess of the EDH Savings shall be credited to Sponsor (the "Guarantee Amount") such that the Network Use Fees and EDH Savings are equal over the Initial Term (the "Guarantee"). If applicable, the Guarantee Amount will be credited by EDH against future amounts due from Sponsor during a Renewal Term (defined below), or if a Renewal Term is not applicable, EDH will remit the Guarantee Amount directly to Sponsor. (b) Example of Calculation of Guarantee. Assume that the actual Case Rates paid by Sponsor to EDH for procedures during the Initial Term were $75,000. Also assume that the Historical Case Rates for the same procedures were $100,000. Assume that Sponsor saved $5,000 because of an avoided spine procedure, and Sponsor saved $10,000 because of an avoided knee replacement complication. Finally, assume that Network Use Fees during the Initial Term totaled $20,000. The calculation of EDH Savings would be $100,000.00 minus $75,000.00 plus $5,000.00 plus $10,000. Thus, the EDH Savings would be $40,000.00. The calculation of net savings for the purposes of the Guarantee would be $40,000.00 minus $20,000.00, or $20,000.00. Because the EDH Savings exceeded Network Use Fees over the Initial Term, EDH would not owe any amount to Sponsor as a result of the Guarantee. (c) Requirement of Utilization Strategy. As set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement, the Parties shall mutually agree to the terms of a written utilization strategy which shall include the schedule and nature of communications relating to Sponsor's implementation and marketing of the Network and Network Services. As further set forth in Exhibit A, a copy of such written utilization strategy shall be provided to each Party and shall be attached to this Agreement as an addendum to Exhibit A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Parties cannot mutually agree to the terms of such a written utilization strategy or if such utilization strategy is not attached as an addendum to Exhibit A of this Agreement, the Guarantee shall be null and void. 4.5 Invoicine and Payment. Periodically during the term of this Agreement, EDH will prepare and submit to Sponsor an invoice fully disclosing and itemizing the amounts to be paid by Sponsor pursuant to the terms of this. Agreement (each, an "Invoice"). Any such Invoice may include, without limitation, amounts related to Claims and/or amounts related to any applicable EDH Fees. Not more than 10 days after Sponsor's receipt of an Invoice, Sponsor will pay directly to EDH the amounts included in such Invoice via wire transfer or electronic funds transfer. After receiving payment from Sponsor, EDH will pay the appropriate Providers and vendors of Travel Services. 4.6 Cancellation Prior to Medical Procedure. If a Participant, for any reason, is not admitted by a Provider, or if a Participant cancels a scheduled procedure at any time prior to performance of the Episode of Care, -6- 57 Sponsor shall be responsible for the cost of Provider's review of Participant's medical records, the cost of any pre- admission testing or treatment provided by a Provider, any expenses related to Travel Services, and any other fees, costs, or expenses actually incurred. EDH will refund any deductible received by the Patient within fifteen (15) business days of cancellation of the Episode of Care and will promptly notify Sponsor of such refund of deductible. Any such charges will be listed in an Invoice. 4.7 Urgent or Emergency Medical Services. If at any time during an Episode of Care, Provider determines that any Medically Necessary Service that is not otherwise included within the Case Rate must be performed on an urgent or emergency basis to preserve the life or health of the Participant, Sponsor will be responsible for payment of the Provider'scharges for any such Medically Necessary Service as part of the Episode of Care. The amounts of such charges will be calculated and charged by EDH according to the pricing terms set :forth in the agreement between EDH and the Provider.. Any such charges will be listed in an Invoice. 4.8 Elective Changes by Participant. This Agreement does not include or permit authorization of elective changes by a Participant after a Provider has accepted the Participant. Moreover, this Agreement does not cover changes to other factors reasonably under control of the Participant during an Episode of Care. Any request by Participant to Provider for such elective changes and Provider's decision to render such elective services will be considered outside of the Network and not subject to the scope of this Agreement.

Staff worked with our consultant Lockton Companies to develop survey questions. The survey instrument was provided to each of the Constitutional Offices for distribution to the workforce. A total of 608 responses were received and 241 individuals provided supplemental comments. Three hundred and fifty (350) respondents were from BOCC employees.

Some respondents have indicated they would never utilize an employer sponsored clinic. Respondents' comments indicate concerns related to cost, services provided, hours of operations, privacy and confidentiality, the type of provider that would staff the clinic, etc. The complexities associated with establishing an Employer Clinic would require professional services of subject matter experts to assist the County in this project. Lockton Companies is well qualified to perform these services. FUNDING The initial cost of pursing an employer sponsored clinic would be $75,000 Professional Consulting Services Fee which would be paid from the Health Insurance Trust. ' The actual cost of establishing a clinic would be determined during this project based on the type of clinic that was implemented. RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully requests that if it is the consensus of the Board of County Commissioners to pursue further evaluation of an employer sponsored clinic, Lockton Companies be engaged to oversee this project as reflected in the attached proposal at a cost of $75,000.

Respootanse Tl_ 241 I think it would be great! NONE Would this take the place of a primary care doctor who you have a long term relationship and knows your health history? Required to go to the clinic for referrals to specialists, when you have an ongoing illness. Cost - Would the employee be required to pay more if they choose to forgo the Clinic and go to their primary care doctor. CONFIDENTIALYITY OF SENSITIVE MEDICAL INFORMATION. personally I go to specialists for my health issues so an employer clinic would not work for me. I would be more likely to use an employer clinic if it operated more like a primary care physician's office versus a walk-in clinic. I prefer a primary care physician because you can create a professional relationship and the physician is familiar with or has access to your health history. I would not use an employer clinic at all if I still had the option to use my own doctor. Even if I had to drive more to get to my own doctor, I would still prefer that and to work with someone of my choosing. If I want a clinic, I will just use one of the MANY walk -in -clinics that we have around here. Why spend the money on an Employer Clinic when pre-existing walk-ins are already here? Drop the costs on walk-ins and it might encourage people to go there more. Also, you will never be able to get rid of ER visits that don't result in an admission. What happens if someone cuts themselves late in the evening after the clinics have closed? They have no choice but to go to the ER to get stitched up. No admission for stitches... Driving up the costs for us to go to the ER is unfair because you think people are needlessly going there. Where else are they supposed to go after the walk-ins close? No concerns I do not subscribe to the County's healthcare plan, as I bring my own insurance from a prior, long-term occupation from which I'm now retired. Concerns would be the way the clinic would work. Yes, they would see us as patients but still answer to our employers who pay the bill. I feel that we would not get the same care that we could get elsewhere plus if someone were to ever leave employment here they then would have to go through the hassle of re- establishing with another physician else where. How much is it going to cost me? Confidentiality I would go to a clinic vs urgent care if it was convenient and if I had confidence in the staff and services provided. I would also go to a clinic for health screenings & biometrics. I use urgent care when I am unable to see my GP. I recentley have set up with a female GP and would not change doctors. Larger increase in healthcare costs! Privacy. Running into co-workers. My previous employer had an on site Doctor's office. I have no concerns. It would be convenient and easier than going to CVS Minute clinic or a Primary Care Dr. none and would gladly use the clinic if offered. None I don't believe your health care and your workplace should be under the same umbrella. Part of the beauty of health insurance is to choose which doctor/healthcare provider you want to use based on your preferences. I believe most people have standing relationships with certain doctors and want to be able to continue to go to them due to the level of comfort and knowledge of their history. It's hard to start fresh with a new doctor. I also like the anonymity of not having the same doctor as my work colleagues. No one needs to know that I was at a doctor and with an employer clinic, everyone knows everyone. I would be concerned that the Employer Clinic might get too overwhelmed considering the number of County employees especially if you were to use it as your primary care physician. Also, would it be cheaper for employees? If an employer clinic is established will it eliminate the ability to go to our Primary or a walk-in should we need it. Or would there be an additional fee such as a "facility fee" that we are charged with the new plan Cost I already have a long standing relationship with current doctors. Access to physicians, as opposed to a nursing, PA or MA only staff. Ya 11 I think it's a great idea. I was actually discussing this earlier today. None No thank you. Smaller government for me. I THINK THIS IS A GREAT BENEFIT FOR THE COUNTY AND THE EMPLOYEES. THIS WOULD HELP KEEP MEDICAL COSTS DOWN. A WIN WIN FOR EVERYONE! The only concern I have is if this will raise the employee's cost for insurance. If it significantly raises the cost of our premiums, it would hurt my pay and I don't like the idea of having a job just to pay for insurance. I cannot afford for the insurance premiums to go up too much. Otherwise, I think it is an excellent idea. Cost. My only concern would be what it would do to insurance costs. If it would raise costs of insurance in order to build I would be opposed to it because lately every time we receive a cost of living adjustment it seems our insurance rates go up as well. I think as an Urgent Care or Walk-in facility it is a good idea. I would not use it as a Primary Care. great idea If there is an employee clinic that we can go to would that eliminate altogether going to a Walk -In clinic if need be? Would the clinic be accessible 7 days/week like the walk-in clinics? Is there a co -pay involved? I would definitely want to stay with my Primary Care Physician for physicals, etc. If the clinic would have personnel that is fully qualified to perform medical functions and give proper advise/care With the almost yearly increases in health care coverage costs, I don't understand how setting up and maintaining a clinic will be cost effective to us. Since salaries of the professionals will likely be capped, what quality of healthcare would we get? I foresee good physicians moving to the private sector to earn more, and we are stuck with looking to replace them with? Just a thought, How about joining other municipalities in attempt to having more leverage in obtaining lower costs for health coverage? I have an established relationship with my current Dr. who ironically works at Urgent Family Care right here in Vero. I feel that she understands and listens to me and I'm not sure I would be willing to leave her. N/A Answers are provided under the assumption that the medical professional on staff would be a RN, PA, or DO at a minimum it would be very helpful ii THINK IT WOULD BE VERY CONVIENENT FOR COLDS, ETC. No concerns. This should happen ASAP. Please stop dragging your feet and make this happen. If this would bring the cost down for family coverage, 2 adults I would do it. Not sure why the county doesn't consider an HMO seems like it would cost less. Came from Georgia with BCBS paying 39.00 a month for family coverage for 4 people it was an HMO much smaller company. 1 would be worried about not having the same doctor consistently in an employer clinic. Privacy Increased monthly health care fees No concerns at this time as little information is yet available. 1 believe this to be a positive step forward. Thank You No concerns at all. It is very beneficial to the county and it's employees, this would be a great resource for everyone. I don't have any concerns ...... I think it would be great, and convenient How much it will cost, will it be an additional deduction on my paycheck? How private will my information be from my employer? Can non -employees use the facility to supplement the costs? Will it be available for families? Will specialists be made available? 1 would love to have a time -frame available to see a dermatologist or a chiropractor. Cost, how convenient it is, Ability to get an appointment I would use this rather than Urgent Care for after-hours medical care for minor injuries or illness. Otherwise, I'd just use my primary care physician. Would not have the same doctors to follow my health care Not open for long enough hours yy I have no concerns. It's a great idea as long as quality health care is provided. I usually don't see anyone unless the illness heads towards major. Minor illnesses I treat at home as it's more convenient. If there was a clinic, I might l actually have minor illnesses treated.

Indian River County needs This, I had a clinic at my last fire department and it was fantastic everyone in the county utilize it it was cheaper and more convenient please make this happen ASAP Information could possibly be used against employee if information was shared with the employer. N/A j Confidentiality, work conditions/hours/pay/insurance coverages potentially being affected, vaccine/medication/care mandates No concerns. Would very much like to see one Receiving appropriate treatment and not rushed to move on to another patient MI y concerns are not so much with a clinic as 1 have been seeing my physician for a number of years and he knows my history and any current issues I have. Additionally, he is convenient to my home in Sebastian, None, it seems like a good idea. I do not have any concerns, in the past, when I worked for Martin County Property Appraiser Office, which they had an excellent facility and no copays and also a pharmacy onsite. I have always used Employer Clinics. [None that 1 am aware of. Due to a very long patient history with my primary doctor, I wouldn't change doctors. NI o concerns, it might be a good idea to have one. For most of my health care needs I feel it's best for me to stay with a primary care physician as they know mebest and I've been established with them for quite a while. L- - - - - - - --- — — --- -- _ - — -- — Quality of care, and confidence in the health care professionals is most important in any health needs that I have. I don't think it will be utilized for the money it will cost to implement it. Perhaps lower costs on other medical option instead of a clinic that most likely won't be used. 1 would not like to be limited to whom we would be able to see because some medical conditions require specialty doctors that are not local such as Mayo Clinic etc. NONE AT THIS TIME. r— ----------------- hOW INSURANCE WOULD HANDLE IT No concerns Lwould this be used by family members also? would there be multiple locations? Same as anywhere else. Quality of the equipment, staff, etc Others may operate more like a Primary Care Physician's office, establishing long-term relationships of care with patients and offering a comprehensive range of services. I would be interested in the possibilities I I am not familiar with it. If it would be a "compliment to our plan" would our insurance cover it and we would be responsible for copays. Is this just for County workers regardless of the division? Why are they considering this? Increased cost in insurance premiums Locations, one or multiple? Confidentiality, better worker comp help? Would referrals to specialists be easier/faster to get? Co -pays be less? Would it be employees only, or extended to our immediate family? privacy — Behavior/Mental Health care would also be great 1�� 1 Cost Confidentiality l Availability None. I think it would be an awesome resource for all employees. None! This is a great idea! Are they able to make "referrals" to and for out of town/network doctors. Will the providers be the same or will they rotate between other clinic (contract employees)? Or will they be county health employees ? I truly believe this will save county dollars and possible increases in health insurance due to inflated EMergency room prices and private practices. Hopefully county administration could visit PBCfR Palm Beach Fire Rescue county clinic as it's been a huge success. Currently I am still utilizing the virtual visit. Hoping to go to regular visits soon. My two concerns for an employee clinic are the quality of care by the provider and having timely access without having to wait weeks for an appointment. I have experienced both of these issues at St Lucie bocc and city of PSL. Thank you. Privacy LI will forever keep medical and employer separate. If this is mandated, I will drop my insurance and still go to my primary care doctor! None. Would appreciate the convenience. none j No concerns, but I don't go to doctor's offices very often. When can we start using it? Quality of health care So as long that the Health Information kept confidential, The Employer has no access to the employee health records We should have had this already This is a great idea. I can't believe it's taken this long to even talk about it. cost and would it be available 24/7? how easy would it be to be seen Will be retiring in near future. Live in Brevard county. None i HAVE A PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN WHICH I USE FOR THESE SERVICES ON A REGULAR BASIS. MY DOCTOR WOULD ALWAYS BE MY FIRST it CHOICE. SHOULD MY DOCTOR LEAVE PRACTICE, I WOULD SIMPLY FIND ANOTHER PRIMARY CARE, PRIMARILY BASED ON REFERRAL FROM FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CO-WORKERS Quality. My interest would greatly depend on the quality of care provided. I WOULD LOVE A EMPLOYEE CLINIC ON SITE, VERY CONVENIENT FOR THE COUNTY EMPLOYEES. Would the information be share with my primary care physician in order to keep records up to date? I think it is hard enough to find a doctor(s) that you like and once found it would be hard to get me to change. could employee clinic services be provided by local urgent care and practitioners? Would dependents who are currently on your insurance be allowed to use this facility as well, such as spouse and children? Would Retired employees and they spouses who are on insurance be allowed to use? i Would there be an additional or increase in current insurance to cover the coast of building and maintaining this facility or would it just be covered by the 1 people who actually use it? I don't think I have any at this time. I would be concerned about the availability of the clinic and the possibility of seeing the same healthcare professional. It is important to me to build relationships with my providers so that I feel like they understand my history and other health concerns. For a minor illness, it may be one thing, but I have a primary doctor that I trust and, as such, much prefer to go to for my health and wellness ed S. j 11 no concerns, just would use it over other options that are cost effective for the plan as well I think it's a great idea! Eventually the cost would be the excuse for a rise in insurance cost and come out of all employees pockets. However, if we don't than again it would be an excuse as well. So all in all it seems like a facade for premium rise. Cost No Concerns, I think it is a great idea! NA I would still like to have the option to be able to go somewhere else at a reasonable price. I would be concerned about relying on this clinic then having it cease to be available it budget issues arise. It has been very difficult to get into see my Primary Care Physician in the past two years due to snowbirds. End up having to go to a walk -in -clinic when sick. If the County does start a clinic, it would have to be equipped to see sick patients'- same day they call and without a long wait time. Would want to have a GOOD Rated Doctor or PA. Someone that is willing to take the time to talk and review chart, you are not just a number. Need someone that understands women's hormone changes: weight gain, thinning hair and not say it is part of getting older. A Holistic Approach since usually not covered by insurance. I have been established with my primary care physician and specialist for many years. Not sure if I would use the Employee Clinic or not. I have been with my primary Doctor for a very long time and do not wish to change to someone who does not know my medical history. My wife has chronic conditions that are being managed by her primary physician and specialists for numerous years presently. My decision would be based on care provided. As with any doctor if 1 felt the care was substandard I would not continue. I've been with my PC Dr. since 2005 so I would be more inclined to use employer clinic as urgent care rather than Primary care. This is awesome. Thank you for considering this option. Privacy would be the only concern. None. Its a nice option to have as long as it wouldn't become a sole source Would depend on the doctor and the comfort level and amount of trust for me personally. Cost I am afraid my privacy will be infringe upon. I am afraid they will not have doctors, they will be interims or etc. The wait time is very long. I can go to my doctor and not have a long wait time. None that I can think of at this time. [Privacy issues, employees discussing others health among themselves around fellow employees. Fellow employees trying to discover information about each other. I prefer to use a doctor that is familiar with me. Not interested in walk in clinics Location Availability. How long it takes to get an appt. NO concerns All answers above are dependent on more information provided. Like cost to visit, experience of healthcare providers on site, etc. none No I would not like to give up my existing Internal Medicine Specialist, who acts as my primary care physician as well. I also would be concerned that my employer would potentially have more direct access to my care, based on reports that the clinic would need to provide to the employer. My primary care physician already does all this and has all my records. Would consider only for an immediate urgent need. Location would be the only issue. I'm not driving to the north end of the county from where I live off Oslo Rd. when I can go to the Care Spot on 58th and 60. I think it is a great idea. This county would be moving in the right direction. None I would not want to give up my primary care doctor if this comes into effect. I would hope that doctor's that are currently in network wouldn't be then made out of network so we couldn't see our primary doctor's and have to use this employer clinic. None Need for continued confidentiality. Would there still be patient doctor confidentiality or would I have to fear taking to the doctor about issues and it getting out and turning into public knowledge at my employer. Concerned the initial start-up cost would be passed along to the employees. I have no concerns, I think it would be a great idea to implement this idea. Having assisted with the opening with the Care Here clinic for the SDIRC, I feel that they have their benefits. The clinic for the SDIRC was slow to develop but after establishing, employees did like the convenience. The biggest issue is finding the perfect provider fit for your employees. There are several individuals that have undocumented health issues because they do not have a PCP and often times critical illnesses are found by the clinic physicians through the BMI/Annual physical screenings. This is an great benefits to employees but I would feel that it should not be staffed by Cleveland Clinic, as their reputation has soured in the mouths of patients and physicians alike. The cost co pay, location, hours... The plan premium costs for our health insurance keeps going up substantially EVERY year. The expensive gold plan forced many to go to the cheaper silver plan that is water -downed plan from what we previously were offered. Due to economic hardship employees were forced to opt for the lesser quality plan. Please do some homework and fix the rising premium costs. Think out of the box and offer the employee clinic. Affordable, good health insurance is one of the benefits of why I left private industry that hit me with a a huge pay cut. Now i am paying more and more to have it. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ None None Is this open to immediate family/dependents of employee? Quality of health care/treatment provided and credentials of medical staff. Would service hours be 24/7 to accommodate those who work varying shifts? No concerns None Will there be availability of Appointment Times and Days. Its a great way for self care with out having to take off for dr appts. It gives gauge of changes in I and blood pressure. I have established doctors Patient confidentiality in the employer-employee setting here is terrible. My supervisor should not know anything about my medical history, conditions, or concerns unless I provide those to them. HIPAA violations should not occur. Time open and the health care professional doing the exam. Is any of my information open to public record request? Will services rendered from this clinic be offered only to Federal Agencies in this county? or other non-federal agencies in this county as well? cost getting same day appointments if sick Privacy I would be concerned that eventually I would not be able to continue to see my current doctors. N/A I am happy with my PCP which is rare. I would guess the clinic would only be as good as the staff managing it. Employer provided medical service does not appeal to me. Health care should not be provided by employers. Reduction in health insurance service to offset the cost of obtaining the Clinic. Conflict of interest potential exists between two parties, right? Cost and privacy Confidentially and H.I.P.A. (H.I.P.P.A.) The only concern would be the price. Not at this time It's an excellent idea and you should proceed. I have a private insurance I like my own Doctors Would this clinic be open on off days such as Saturdays and/or Sundays Only concerns are quality of doctors and keeping the same doctors for continuity of care. none, I think its a great idea My question, like alot of people, is how will this be funded? I'm sure it has to come from somewhere, will it be deductions from county employees, and say the decision is not to have a clinic, will that cause our insurance premiums to go up, due to the chance we had for employer healthcare clinic? What would also be nice to see if the county offered a child daycare for parents. I'm sure that could be funded somehow, there's always a way, sometimes what lacks is planning and initiative. My only question is cost. not having the option of using the Doctor of MY choice... It would be nice to have a clinic on campus available to employees. To much personal information, and total access to all my health records. That can be stored, stolen or hacked by a third party. I have been using the same Doctor for twenty years, and every three months I have biometric screening done and yearly blood work. The only one that I sign access of my records to is my wife & Doctor. I do not have much faith in the internet of personal data, and personal health information to be made available to my employer or any third party. Thank you. I would only worry if the access would be open to different schedules None wait times probability of getting an appointment. Access. I live in Satellite Beach. Accessibility Quality of clinicians. Quality of equipment and diagnostic tools. Customer service I do not have any concerns and think it would be a great idea to have this type of clinic for county employees. WOULD THE HOURS BE AVAILABLE TO OUR 12 HOUR SHIFTS.WOULD WE GET MEDS FOR FREE OF AT A REDUCED RATE. WHAT SORT OF SCEENINGS WOULD THEY OFFER TO SAVE ON COPAYS THAT WE PAY AT OUT REGULAR DOCTORS OFFICES. would consider if copays were less; such as x-ray copay...at $200 each time, plus mri if needed, it becomes quite costly! will consider what would the difference be in using a primary care and going to an employer clinic That it could possibly limit your healthcare options or providers. Privacy. Where would the clinic be located? I would want assurances my medical information would remain private. if the county thought we were unfit Loss of job. 104 11 I usually would rather visit my primary doctor or specialists that I have already been working with. I have used Employer clinics and have had mostly good experiences, however, I have also seen employers push you to go there instead of a place of your choice. And that concerns me and I wonder if they have access to whether or not you went for a visit. My main concern would be that 1 like my doctors and have been working with them for a long time. But I would certainly consider going to an urgent care type facility that wouldn't cost more. Otherwise, if there is a charge to visit, I'd rather just go where 1 go now. confidentiality MY ONLY CONCERN WOULD BE "WHO" THE DOCTOR IS AND IF I WOULD GET ALONG WITH HIM/HER. If it will lower the insurance costs I would be happy because our insurance costs are rising faster then cost of living, every year we get a COLA then it is negated and then some by rising insurance costs. Would be concerned about the quality of the personnel employed at the employee clinic. No privacy ..and I can see the Hippa law being broken.. Have established primary care provider as well as specialists & would likely not change. With the Health Insurance I have now, there is no out-of-pocket expense when Igo to my primary care physician. So if there were any charges associated with the clinic, I probably would not use these services. would want to continue with the current doctors that I am established with. This is a terrible idea None No concern. Hours of Operation. Would dependents on the plan have to utilize the employer clinic as well? medical private and confidential information not reported to employer I think it would be a relief to not wonder if I am choosing to visit the right Dr or not. I don't know how to pick a DR on my own. 1 would be glad to have an employer health community. I'm concerned about any cost involved. I have been involved in another employer clinic where there was no charge and it worked very well! Hoping this will too. Would definitely cut down on healthcare cost. depends on location and hours (as I don't live in IRC) I would be concerned if the clinic didn't have the equipment or staff to treat me or my family. Being turned away for any reason would be a huge disappointment. It would be great if a clinic was equipped to treat what an urgent care walk in facility could treat. I don't carry county health insurance so I would be unlikely to use the clinic. If it would not be available to retirees, then this survey is moot. Cost and privacy When I worked at Orange County we had an Employer based clinic for injuries that occurred on the job. The staff they hired were mostly physician's assistants or entry level doctors. I still can not throw a ball or run thanks to poor treatment they provided over 30 years ago. I would consider using employer clinic for minor issues but would prefer Primary Care for anything more serious/chronic. My concern with the employer clinic providing more comprehensive services is that it would eliminate other options and/or be more costly. I would need a few more details to consider this. Thank you Concerns about limited operating hours and/or weekend visits. Also, concerns about lack of pediatric care for dependents for minor illnesses. no concerns Costs Great option as long as it doesn't foreclose the options we have now. Part time not covered by insurance 105 Page 10 of 11 I have no concerns. I used to be part of an organization which used Care Here for their employee clinic. It was great. It is really a benefit I miss and would love to see the County pick up. Quality of care and proper funding for needed equipment would be a major concern with the past funding of IRC government entities. Hours of operation. Also will my family be able to use the clinic. None. I believe an employer clinic would benefit everyone who works for the county. I think it would benefit the county and its employees to have the clinic but we need to see the numbers. Other counties are able to do this, find out how they make it successful. Total # of respondents 608.

Sincerely, Lockton Companies 108 134 MEMORANDUM TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Dylan Reingold, County Attorney DATE: April 29, 2021 SUBJECT: Children's Services Dedicated Millage BACKGROUND. On February 25, 2020, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners ("Board") conducted a workshop and provided guidance to the County Attorney on various issues pertaining to the dedicated millage for the Children's Trust. The guidance addressed the proposed millage rate, sunset date, millage phase-in, Children's Trust Advisory Board membership, executive director position and staffing, and the use of dedicated millage funds. After the workshop, the County Attorney's Office began drafting the proposed ordinance, which called for the referendum and established a new chapter of the Indian River County Code of Ordinances pertaining to the dedicated millage and the other issues noted above. On May 5, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and at the request of County staff and representatives supporting the referendum, the Board voted to defer placing the matter on the November 2020 ballot. At the time, the County Attorney's Office noted that it would bring the matter and a draft ordinance back to the Board in 2021 for consideration of placing the matter on the November 2022 ballot. Since then, County staff has had several productive meetings with the representatives supporting the referendum. Based upon the input from the Board at the workshop and from the representatives supporting the referendum, the County Attorney's Office has drafted the attached ordinance for review and comment from the Board. The ordinance establishes a 15 member Children's Trust Advisory Board, consisting of fhe following members: 1. County Commissioner 2. Judge living in Indian River designated by Chief Judge 3. Superintendent of Schools 4. Department of Children and Families, Assistant District Administrator for Indian River County. 5. Department of Health County Health Department Administrator 110 Board of County Commissioners April 29, 2021, Page 2 6. Law Enforcement officer 7. Representative from the Indian River County Hospital District. 8-12. Five (5) voting members from the community appointed by the Board of County Commissioners, which individuals shall have some form of expertise in the arena of children's services, such as a physician, licensed mental health professional, or child advocate. 13. One voting member appointed by the Board of County Commissioners, who represents the Taxpayers' Association of Indian River County. 14. One voting member, appointed by the Board of County Commissioners, who is an accountant. 15. One (1) at -large voting member shall be appointed by the Board of County Commissioners. The funding for the Children's Trust would be based upon an ad valorem tax of 0.2000 of a mill from 2023-2024 to 2025-2026, 0.2500 of a mill from 2026-2027 to 2028-2029, and 0.3333 of a mill from 2029-. 2030 to 2034-2035. The funds will be used to promote the health and well-being of children, which encompasses socioeconomic, physical, mental, social, emotional, environmental and educational health. A number of purposes are described in the ordinance, however in an attempt to address the concern with the duplication of funds expended by other agencies, the ordinance does not permit funds to be used to pay for or reimburse services provided by other governmental entities or their employees. The ordinance includes an executive office director who would serve under the purview of the County Administrator, who will undertake various functions including, but not limited to, providing administrative support for the Children's Trust Advisory Board meetings, monitoring agencies receiving funds, writing appropriate grants, producing written materials, reviewing applications . for funding, reporting to the Children's Trust Advisory Board, preparing annual budgets, writing and presenting annual reports. The office will consist of a director or manager and adequate staff to perform all duties provided for under the Children's Trust Chapter of the County Ordinance Code. The ordinance calls for a referendum at the November 8, 2022 election and would expire 12 years after such date, if the millage is approved by the voters. Since the workshop on February 25, 2020, it has been determined that the most practicable method by which to dedicate the Children's Trust millage would be to establish a special dependent district. In order to establish a .special district countywide, per section 125.01(5)(a), Florida Statutes, the special district would be subject to the approval of the governing body of the incorporated area affected. Thus, the councils of the five municipalities will need to approve the special district in order to have the millage rate applicable in the incorporated areas of the County. If the Board approves moving forward with the draft ordinance, County staff would work with the representatives supporting the referendum, to seek support of a resolution from each of the municipalities. Additionally, the County Attorney's Office would make such changes to the draft ordinance to reflect the establishment of the special dependent district. 111 Board of County Commissioners April 29, 2021 Page 3 FUNDING. The Children's Trust expenses will be solely funded by the millage proceeds collected as detailed in the referendum. RECOMMENDATION. The County Attorney's Office recommends the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners provide guidance on the proposed ordinance and authorize County staff to work with the representatives supporting the referendum in obtaining the approval from the municipalities and drafting any resolutions to effectuate such approval.. The County Attorney's Office also recommend that the Board authorize setting a public hearing on the ordinance, incorporating any changes made by the Board, after obtaining the approvals from the municipalities.

Smith, Clerk and Comptroller M Deputy Clerk BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA Joseph E. Flescher, Chairman This Ordinance was filed with the Department of State on the day of , 2021. 123 INDIAN RIVER COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners DATE: SUBJECT: Approval of Special Rate for Use of the Fairgrounds Following Events at Sandridge Golf Club FROM: Susan Adams Commissioner, District 1 I would appreciate a discussion with my fellow commissioners regarding the concept of a venue package for the use of Sandridge Golf Club and the Fleetwood Center under specific circumstances as described below. BACKGROUND: Sandridge Golf Club hosts several charity golf tournaments throughout the year that are organized and funded by various non-profit community organizations. These events generally include opening ceremonies and golf with awards and closing events held at the Sandridge Cafe, which currently accommodates up to 150 people. In recent years, the Vietnam Veterans of Indian River County Inc. have held the Mary Snyder Golf Tournament at Sandridge. This popular event has grown to over 250 participants and volunteers. It is wonderful to see this, and other successful events grow through the years. However even though this is a great problem to have, it means that Sandridge is unable to host the awards and closing events due to a limited seating capacity. In order to find a solution to the current capacity limitations, Sandridge staff in cooperation with its food an&beverage concessionaire is willing and able to set up and hold the post event activities in the Fleetwood Center at the IRC Fairgrounds. It should be noted that in recognition of the increased usage and growth of events held at Sandridge, the Sandridge Clubhouse Addition Project will be coming to the BOCC for consideration on a future agenda. This project is intended to address the limited capacity at the facility allowing IRC to help foster and grow these successful events that are so important to the viability of our community non-profit groups. 124 On May 4, 2021, the Vietnam Veterans of IRC Inc. approached the Board of County Commissioners to seek a waiver of the fees associated with the use.of the Fairgrounds following the golf tournament. The Board discussed how to best balance the need for the event to be moved due to facility capacity, while taking into consideration that they have already contracted to use the facilities at Sandridge. Further discussion was had regarding. creating a process that could be applied to other events and non-profit organizations that may be facing similar circumstances. During the discussion, the idea was proposed to create a package or special rate that would apply in the described specific circumstances. PROPOSAL: It is proposed that the Board of County Commissioners approve a special rate applicable to the Fairgrounds facility rental rate schedule equivalent to 75% of the non-profit rate following a charitable golf tournament at Sandridge Golf Club exceeding 150 participants. It is further recommended to sunset this special rate upon completion of the planned Sandridge Clubhouse Addition Project. I believe that this proposal would strike a balance between protecting taxpayer dollars and supporting the role that fundraisers hold for non -profits allowing them to raise funds to put valuable resources back into our community. After speaking with staff, it is my understanding the proposal would cover the overhead cost of using the facility and.coupled with some additional savings that come with using 2 county facilities and the same concessionaire, the Vietnam Veterans of IRC would bear a minimal fiscal impact for their event, which should be further offset by the generous pledges made by various individuals at the May 4th BOCC meeting. Thank you for your consideration. 125 11S181 SWDD Item Indian River County, Florida Solid Waste Disposal District Board Memorandum Date: April 30, 2021 To: Jason E.
