8.e. Discussion and possible action to approve or not approve group health benefits through OPEH&W Plan for the 2025-2026 school year as listed on the attached Employee Class Definition.
Rationale:
The district currently pays 100% of employee health, dental vision, and life over the Flexible Benefit Allowance of $707.00 monthly. Rates for 2025-2026 health and dental insurance will increase by 4.5%. The additional cost to the district will be about $21,000. Medical transportation is a new benefit. Employee coverage is $9.00 per month, or about $5,800 per year.
Other changes include making employee group dental mandatory if employee group health is selected and making vision and group life mandatory for all full-time employees. All of these benefits are district-paid. Employees who waive group health can still enroll in dental coverage. These changes will simplify the enrollment process. We already have a Section 125 plan with ancillary products and an FSA plan through American Fidelity.
