Costa
DATE: August- 13, 1991 County
SUBJECT: 1st Choice Health Plan - Health Plan -Administrative Services Agreement
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the County Risk Manager to execute a contract amendment with
Synergetic Administrative Services Inc. to pay for administrative services to
the 1st Choice Health Plan at $13.77 per enrolled 1st Choice subscriber,
retroactive to July 1, 1991.
BACKGROUND:
As a result of negotiations with Synergetic Administrative Services,
Inc. , it was agreed to convert the administrative fee calculations from 6% of
paid claims to a flat rate of $13.77 per enrolled subscriber per month. The
negotiated modified payment method incorporates a fee reduction resulting from
the transfer of certain administrative duties previously performed by Synergetic
to the benefit consultant.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Reduction of the administrative fee from six percent (6%) of paid
claims to $13.77 per enrolled subscriber per month will result in an estimated
annual savings of $75,000.
