AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE
COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER
MEETING DATE: April 10, 2012
AGENDA ITEM: Request to approve the health insurance plan and rates for
County and School employees for fiscal year 2012 -2013
SUBMITTED BY: Rebecca Owens

County Administrator
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
Health Insurance
The County of Roanoke and Roanoke County Public Schools participate in a joint health
insurance program for eligible employees. The Roanoke Valley Resource Authority
(RVRA), and the Western Virginia Regional Jail Authority ( also participate in our
plan. This medical plan is self- funded with reinsurance coverage to protect the financial
risk assumed. Reinsurance is composed of specific stop loss. The specific stop loss
threshold is $200,000. Specific reinsurance protects the plan from any catastrophic claims
paid on a member during the plan year. The plan purchases administrative services,
access to the network physicians and facilities and claims administration from Anthem.
On March 2, 2012, representatives from the County, Schools, Roanoke Valley Resources
Authority and Western Virginia Regional Jail Authority met to review the renewal and
discuss recommendations for the 2012 -2013 plan year.
A review of paid claims experience of the County, Schools, Roanoke Valley Resources
Authority and Western Virginia Regional Jail Authority for the most recent twelve months
indicates the need for an increase in rates of six point eight percent (6.8 %.)
In an effort to reduce costs, manage health care increases and /or be in compliance with
State of Virginia statutes, the following changes are recommended for the 2012 -2013
Page 1 of 5
policy year as follows:
• Move to Anthem's KeyCare 200 plan. This plan adds a $200 single /$400 family
calendar year deductible to the plan. For services other than preventive services,
office visits and prescription drugs, the member will need to satisfy the calendar
year deductible before benefits will be paid. This plan change results in an annual
savings of $320,000 or one point three percent (1.3 %) on the rate.
• Eliminate the one hundred and fifteen percent (115 %) aggregate stop loss
reinsurance. An analysis of prior claims history revealed that the claims have been
predictable and within five percent (5 %) of expected limits every year. This plan
change results in an annual savings of $200,000 or point eight percent (0.8 %) on
the rate.
• Rates historically have been budgeted at an amount slightly above to allow for claim
fluctuation, however with adequate health insurance reserves, this is being removed
for 2012 -2013 to keep rates the same. Removal of the claim margin reduces the
overall increase by four point seven percent (4.7 %.)
• Wells Fargo negotiated savings on the administrative fees resulting in annual
savings of $27,000 or point one percent (0.1 %) on the rate.
• Coverage for autism spectrum disorder for children two through six (2 -6) will now be
covered in accordance with State of Virginia statute for fully funded plans. Although
this coverage is not yet mandated for self- insured plans, the Committee
recommended that it be included. The cost for this benefit is point one percent
(0.1 %) on the rate.
Since the medical plan is self funded, the historical claims paid on the program are used to
establish rates and employee contributions for the plan. Some cost drivers from the review
period January 2011 through December 2011 are outlined below:
• Total claims, as a cost per member, have increased seven point two percent (7.2 %)
from calendar year 2010 to 2011.
• During the review period, there were eight (8) claimants who exceeded the
$200,000 specific stop loss limit. Additionally, there have been twenty -four (24)
claimants with claims in excess of $100,000. The incidence of large claims is
higher with this renewal cycle than in the past five (5) renewal review periods.
• In- network utilization of the plan continues to be high with ninety -nine percent (99 %)
of claim dollars submitted with network providers. The use of Anthem's network
providers protects members from balance billing and lowers out -of- pocket costs.
• Outpatient prescription drug claims comprise twenty point seven percent (20.7 %) of
total claims expense on the plan. This is slightly higher than the industry average of
Page 2 of 5
eighteen to twenty percent (18% to 20 %.) These expenses increased ten percent
(10 %) from 2011 versus 2010. Generic utilization of prescription drugs is very
strong at seventy three point three percent (73.3 %) during calendar year 2011.
Wells Fargo Insurance Services also negotiated Anthem will provide the Plan a wellness
credit of $50,000 for the 2012/2013 policy year. This credit is shared among the entities
participating based on employee counts.
The County and Schools have consistently kept overall medical costs below the national
average with annual increases of four point eight percent (4.8 %) for 2011 -2012, four point
one percent (4.1 %) for 2010 -2011, zero percent (0 %) for 2009 -2010, three point four seven
percent (3.47 %) for 2008 -2009, seven point three percent (7.3 %) for 2007 -2008, eight
percent (8 %) for 2006 -2007, five point five percent (5.5 %) for 2005 -2006 and nine point
seven percent (9.7 %) for 2004 -2005, while national averages have ranged from eleven
percent (11 %) to twenty percent (20 %) during that time period. The Insurance Committee
has been successful in maintaining favorable performance during this time through plan
design changes that have addressed the underlying cost drivers of the program.
The Schools approved the health insurance rates at their meeting on March 27, 2011.
The School Board and Board of Supervisors met in joint session on February 1, 2012, to
hear presentation on a possible alternative health insurance option for employees using
high deductible plans. At that time, Board members from both Boards expressed
reservations about implementing such a plan for 2012 -2013 due to the complexity of the
plans involving IRS regulations and employee understanding of the risk involved. An
alternative health insurance option is not being recommended for 2012 -2013 based on that
meeting. Further direction from the School Board and Board of Supervisors is expected in
coming months for consideration in a future health insurance renewal cycle.
Wellness Program
Roanoke County is committed to providing high quality work and life benefits to our
employees. While the most costly of these benefits is, without doubt, the provision of
health insurance, it can be argued that what is most important is the overall health and
wellness of the workforce.
With healthcare costs easily the largest employee benefit expense and continuing to rise,
Roanoke County implemented an employee wellness program late 2010 in an effort to
control medical costs and enhance the lifestyle practices of employees. Based on first
year reporting that shows the cost avoidance experienced for program participants, and
considering the results of a four -year study published in the American Journal of Health
Promotion March /April 2011, there is strong evidence showing that workplace wellness
programs are effective at reducing medical costs.
Participating employees have benefited from the program with free, convenient access to
the on -site clinic during work hours, medical assistance provided by a Nurse Practitioner for
minor medical needs including lab work and analysis, medication management, scheduling
Page 3of5
of appointments with physicians and outpatient referrals and detection of health problems
in early stages. The County has benefited from the program as the on -site clinic provides
less costly medical access for employees with no primary care physician, reduced
utilization of ER /Urgent care centers, medical problems detected earlier to avoid higher
costs and lost work time may be reduced due to the convenience of the on -site clinic.
Based on an analysis of the first twelve (12) months of the program (October 2010-
September 2011) the reduction in claims trend for individuals who participated in the
wellness program more than offset the first year of costs of the program. The costs
avoidance savings for the program were estimated to be $381,640 by Living Well. The first
year expenses for the program totaled $341,656 which includes administrative costs,
program incentive and health risk assessment.
After years of promoting worksite wellness programs to its customers, with several
components similar to the one implemented by Roanoke County, Highmark, Inc., a
Pennsylvania insurer embarked on a study to prove what they were selling. The study
matched approximately 10,000 wellness program participants at 47 Highmark employer
groups with a risk - matched comparison group (i.e., same age, gender and risk factors) that
was not enrolled in a wellness program. The study concluded that during the 2003 baseline
year, employers had greater costs, greater chronic disease prevalence and greater
hospitalization. Costs of program participants showed a lower rate of increase in 2004,
and then dropped below those of the nonparticipants for the duration of the study.
Between 2003 and 2007, the increase in medical expenditures of the participant group was
significantly less than that of the non - participant group (31% vs. 46 %). In addition, the
participant group showed a lower increase in professional service expenditures and greater
utilization of preventive services.
This study helps to illustrate the goal of the County's wellness program. High employee
participation in a comprehensive wellness program can improve the health of our
employees, and also slows the rate of healthcare cost increases. With this information, the
goal is to increase participation into the wellness program by approximately fourteen
percent (14 %.)
The County enrolled approximately sixty percent (60 %) or 525 participants in the program
for 2011 -2012. Recommendations for the upcoming plan year to increase participation
includes: allowing new hires to join upon their date of hire and to increase the amount of
the incentive offered to employees from $25 to $40.
Assuming a fourteen percent (14 %) increase in participation (525 to 600) the projected
costs to the wellness program are as follows:
• Wellness program costs for the health risk assessment, administrative fee and labs
will increase $7,094
• Education materials will be eliminated as they were duplication of information
provided by Anthem and of poor quality. Program costs will decrease $10,296.
• The nurse practitioner and health educator costs will remain the same at $105,500
Page 4 of 5
• The cost for increasing the incentive from $25 to $40 is $123,000
• The net costs of the wellness program to the health insurance reserve were
budgeted at $187,005 for 2011 -2012 and are projected at $184,028 for 2012 -2013.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Health Insurance premiums will remain unchanged for the 2012 -2013 fiscal year. The
County benefit and employee rate for employees not participating in the wellness program
will stay the same. The County benefit for employees participating in the wellness program
will increase by fifteen dollars ($15) and the employee rate will decrease by fifteen dollars
($15.) Health insurance rates for employees and wellness participants are outlined in
Attachment A.
The wellness program will be funded through health insurance reserves. Funding has
been included in the fiscal 2012 -2013 budget. (Attachment B)
Health insurance reserves are projected to remain at $5 million as directed by the Board.
(Attachment C).
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approving a contract with Anthem to provide our medical program and
the attached health insurance rates (attachment A) for fiscal year 2012 -2013.
VOTE:
Supervisor Altizer moved to approve the staff recommendation.
Motion approved.

ITEM NO. E -3
AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE
COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER
MEETING DATE: April 10, 2012
AGENDA ITEM: Request to approve the dental insurance plan and rates for
County and School employees for fiscal year 2012 -2013
SUBMITTED BY: Rebecca Owens
Director of Finance
APPROVED BY: B. Clayton Goodman III
County Administrator
COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS:
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
The County of Roanoke and Roanoke County Public Schools participate in the joint
purchase of dental coverage for their eligible employees and retirees through the Roanoke
Valley Regional Health Care Consortium.
Calendar year 2012 is the fifth (5 ")and last year of the contract award to Delta Dental, and
the second (2 nd ) year without a guaranteed rate cap. Delta's original renewal package
proposed a four point three percent (4.3 %) rate increase. After an independent
underwriting review and negotiations with Delta Dental, Wells Fargo was able to have Delta
agree to a three point five percent (3.5 %) increase.
Since the dental plan is on a calendar year basis, a blended rate is calculated for the
employee rate each year in order to avoid changing the rates in the middle of the year.
Dental rates for employees are brought forward to the Board during the spring, for
approval. Retirees pay a premium that is based on their experience in the dental plan.
The dental rates will need to be increased for 2012 -2013 as outlined on Attachment A and
would be effective July 1, 2012. Employee rates will not change and dental reserves will
Page 1 of 2
be used to cover the increase in premium for 2012 -2013.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds are available in the dental reserves to cover the full cost of the increased premium.
The projected amount to be used from reserves for the County is $2,292 and the School is
$18,265.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approving the dental insurance plan and rates for fiscal year 2012 -2013.
VOTE:
Supervisor Altizer moved to approve the staff recommendation.
Motion approved.

RESOLUTION 041012 -8.0 IN SUPPORT OF LEWISGALE MEDICAL
CENTER'S APPLICATION TO INTRODUCE NEONATAL SPECIAL
CARE
WHEREAS, LewisGale Medical Center operates an acute care hospital in Salem,
Virginia that provides residents of Roanoke County and surrounding communities with
access to high quality, essential hospital services; and
WHEREAS, LewisGale Medical Center offers a broad range of services to
patients but is not currently approved to provide neonatal special care services; and
WHEREAS, the Commissioner of Health denied LewisGale Medical Center's
previous COPN application to provide neonatal special care services; and
WHEREAS, no COPN application to provide neonatal special care services in
any other region of the Commonwealth has ever been denied by the Commissioner of
Health prior to denial of LewisGale Medical Center's application, which has resulted in
neonatal special care services being widely available to patients in certain other regions
of the Commonwealth; and
WHEREAS, the people of Roanoke County, and of southwestern Virginia, have
the same rights to and needs for neonatal special care services as do people in other
parts of the Commonwealth; and
WHEREAS, neonatal special care services are a fundamental service for any
hospital serving a vibrant and growing community; and
WHEREAS, the availability of high - quality healthcare services, including neonatal
special care services, is essential to attracting and maintaining the best and brightest
workers and their families to the region to contribute to economic growth; and
Page 1 of 3
WHEREAS, LewisGale Medical Center's ability to provide neonatal special care
services is essential to continuity of care for area maternity patients and newborns
because it is highly disruptive to patients and their families to be required to obtain
neonatal special care services from another provider; and
WHEREAS, expectant mothers treated at LewisGale Medical Center who
discover that their children may need neonatal special care services must change their
care teams in mid - pregnancy after developing important patient- caregiver relationships
with their current care teams; and
WHEREAS, infants born at LewisGale Medical Center in need of neonatal
special care services must be transferred to another facility; and
WHEREAS, transferring infants in need of neonatal special care services takes a
tremendous toll on patients and their families, particularly because such transfers have
the capacity to split apart families within hours of an infant's birth because mother and
child would be hospitalized at different facilities; and
WHEREAS, in addition to these emotional costs, clinical outcomes are usually
better for families that can be kept together; and
WHEREAS, the introduction of neonatal special care services at LewisGale
Medical Center will mitigate the emotional costs and improve clinical outcomes; and
WHEREAS, LewisGale Medical Center is accessible to all patients regardless of
ability to pay or payment source because of the hospital's generous charity and
uninsured discount policies, and it is very accessible from a geographic perspective.
Page 2of3
NOW, THEREFORE LET IT BE RESOLVED, that the Roanoke County Board of
Supervisors supports LewisGale Medical Center's plans to establish an eight -bed
specialty neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at the hospital,
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Roanoke County Board of
Supervisors respectfully urges the Virginia Commissioner of Health to grant approval for
this much- needed project.

On September 15, 2010, the Commonwealth Transportation Board approved a pro -rated
share of these funds for two projects in Roanoke County. Partial funding was approved for
drainage improvements to Tanglewood Drive, and for preliminary engineering for
pedestrian and bicycle improvements to Plantation Road. Both of these projects are being
locally administered, rather than being administered by VDOT.

On December 14, 2010, the Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution granting signatory
authority to execute project administration agreements for the approved projects to the
County Engineer who serves as the project manager.
These projects have the necessary approvals to move forward and VDOT will reimburse
the County up to $57,613 for the Tanglewood Drive project and up to $27,654 for the
Plantation Road project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A fifty percent (50 %) local match will be required for the Tanglewood Drive and Plantation
Road projects. Funds are available from the Revenue Sharing funds in the capital fund.

engineering for pedestrian and bicycle improvements to Plantation Road in the amount of
$55,308.
