Guests: Pamela Meagher; Nancy Schaub; Ben Ponder; Heather Wolf

Mrs. Schumacher called the meeting to order at 7:12 p.m.

A motion was made by Mr. Ruben, seconded by Mr. Anderson, to approve the minutes from the March 12, 2014 meeting as printed. Motion passed.

Old Business

Supplemental insurance for employees: Mrs. Meagher reminded the committee of the ongoing concerns with AFLAC customer service. Mr. Ponder and Ms. Wolf addressed the committee. AFLAC became aware of Logan County’s dissatisfaction when it identified the Lincoln Daily News article concerning seeking new providers. Mr. Ponder was asked to investigate the concerns. He has asked Ms. Wolf to become the new representative for Logan County. Further discussion indicated the majority of the problem may invoice AFLAC’s Paylogix billing and Mr. Ponder believes Logan County can be removed from the combined billing. Mr. Ponder and Ms. Wolf will meet with Mrs. Meagher and conduct a telephone conference call with AFLAC to discuss any outstanding issues. A motion was made by Mr. Hepler, seconded by Mr. Ruben, to delay any switch to a new provider in order to allow Ms. Wolf time to address the problem. This decision will be re-evaluated in July. Motion passed.

Cyber liability: This item was not addressed.
Health insurance renewal: Ms. Schaub reminded the committee that the recent Blue Cross renewal indicated an option to receive an additional one percent discount by switching life insurance coverage to Dearborn National. She reported the quote from Dearborn National was received and, as expected, it is slightly lower than the current cost with Lincoln National. A motion was made by Mr. Bateman, seconded by Mr. Hepler, to approve the switch of life insurance coverage to Dearborn National with all coverage remaining the same. Motion passed.

New Business:

Claim from 9-1-1 and Emergency Operations Center: Mrs. Schumacher reported on the recent lightning damage claim at the Safety Complex. The claim is expected to be half a million dollars and is being closely coordinated with the insurance adjuster.
