(KLZA)--The Falls City Council has approved the health insurance renewal for city employees for the next year.
During the June 18th meeting, Dan Duren with Benefit Management updated Council members on the plan.
Duren said Blue Cross / Blue Shield originally submitted a renewal rate with about a five-percent price increase. After going through a prescription underwriting, prices were secured from United Healthcare and Aetna, allowing Benefit Management to go back and negotiate with Blue Cross / Blue Shield.
After negotiations, the renewal rate came back with a zero-percent increase after the City Health Insurance Committee approved increasing the deductible on the traditional policy from $750 to $1,000.
