Benefits Presentation Joe Costa & Associates, Inc.

Virginia Smith brought in a benefits representative, Joey Costa to present about health benefits. It is the goal to be competitive with TMSA's health benefits across fulton county. Joey Costa and Associates is endorsed by the Georgia Charter School Association. The current UHC Plan is receiving a 19% rate increase due in large part to the prescription costs of 6 covered individuals. The total annual prescription cost for these individuals is $300,000. Due to the high prescription costs, only Aetna & Kaiser Permanente returned competitive pricing. Blue Cross Blue Shield declined to provide a quote , and Humana came back so high that they were not competitive. The company has uncovered 2 options for savings on ancillary coverage with Renaissance and Principal. When TMSA's independently obtained benefit plans are compared to other options, TMSA's benefits provide far superior coverage at substantially lower prices. Annual Cost Scenarios: County Plan: $11,300 for certified and $10,154.40 for non certified TMSA Current: $7,904.40 Currently contributes 75% of medical, 70% of dental, 28% of vision, and 100% of Life, STD and LTD TMSA Option 1: $6,490.32 TMSA would contribute $500 toward Medical, Dental and Vision, and will continue to contribute 100% of Life, STD and LTD. TMSA Option 2: $7,690.32 TMSA would contribute $600 toward Medical, Dental and Vision, and will continue to contribute 100% of Life, STD, and LTD. Average Charters: $4,614.96
