Review of Agenda Master Calendar Dr. Warren noted a new Student Board member will be seated in April and reminded Trustees of the upcoming Student Recognition Ceremony on April 26. B. President’s Report Dr. Warren recently attended the Illinois Council of Community College Presidents, the Illinois Community College Trustees Association and Illinois Community College Board meetings with no hopeful or positive news on an Illinois State budget. It appears there may be no FY ‘16 budget, which means no funding for colleges, and rumors are floating 12

AGENDA ITEM II.A

that an FY ’17 Budget will most likely not be approved by the end of the spring legislative session. Trustee Rosenthal provided information that there may be some combination of an FY ’16 and FY ’17 Budget, which provides zero dollars for colleges, but would allow the State to spend dollars to pay the previous year’s bills. At this point everything is just speculation, nothing definite. Due to the dire financial challenges facing Illinois community colleges, the Illinois Community College Trustees Association (ICCTA) has decided to make changes to their Annual June Awards Banquet and Gala. There will be no Executive Committee Meeting/Dinner, the Awards Luncheon and Dinner/Gala have been combined into one evening event at a greatly reduced price. ICCTA hopes these changes will allow colleges to participate in this annual event. The event will be held in Springfield this year. Senator Manar has introduced legislation allowing community colleges to offer baccalaureate degrees in Nursing. After much discussion the Illinois Council of Community College Presidents affirmed its continuous support of this legislation. ICCTA’s Legislative Committee also approved supporting this proposed legislation, forwarding it to ICCTA’s Baccalaureate Study Committee for review, with plans to make a formal recommendation in May. Chairman Findley stated the timing may not be the best, considering the lack of State funding, but Trustees and Presidents should stand together in support of this legislation because of its instrumental effect on hospitals and health care in Illinois. Chairman Findley and Vice Chairman Wesley both serve on the Baccalaureate Study Committee and are awaiting notification of their next meeting. Dr. Warren informed Trustees they could have an LLCC email account set up to conduct College business if they preferred to not use their personal email accounts. On March 22, Secretary of the Board, Mr. Shackelford participated in the ribbon cutting ceremony of the new structure that houses the College’s Bird Banding Research Program. Hundreds of Biology students have received hands-on research experience and approximately 11,000 birds, of 113 species, have been banded as part of the program. The Accreditation Commission for Education of Nursing conducted a site review for continuing accreditation of the Associate Degree Nursing Program (ADN) and an initial accreditation of the Licensed Practical Nursing Program (LPN). Both programs were found to be in full compliance with all standards and criteria. The Commission recommended a full, eight-year, reaccreditation for the ADN program and full, five-year, initial accreditation for the LPN program, which is standard for initial accreditation. The next step for each program is a review by the Evaluation Review Panel in June, followed by consideration for approval by the Board of Commissioners in July.

Revision to Board Policy 8.12 - Leaves

DATE:

April 27, 2016

As a result of the recently completed faculty contract, the number of sick days that employees can accumulate has changed. Accordingly, it is necessary to change Board Policy 8.12 - Leaves. During the editing process, a review of Policy 8.12 revealed a mix of procedural language contained in the policy, references to statutes that may change from time to time, and redundant language. As a result of both the new contract terms and the overall policy language review, several changes are recommended for this policy. These changes will update the policy to reflect current practice, help ensure that the policy language stays current by referring to State and Federal laws rather than using language from the statutes, and streamline the policy by moving appropriate portions to the College’s procedures. No action is required of you this evening. With Board concurrence, we will return this policy to you for action at the regularly scheduled May 2016 meeting of the Board.

Health Insurance Rates for FY2017

DATE:

April 27, 2016

As you may recall, the College has maintained a committee of individuals representing all constituent groups across campus to review the College’s medical insurance plan. The committee is empowered to recommend coverage changes to the Board of Trustees. The insurance committee met this spring with the insurance consultant from Risk Strategies (formerly known as Northwest Comprehensive) to review aggregate claims data, large claims data as it pertains to our stop loss coverage, plan design and projected rates for FY2017. After eight months of claims this year, the college has three insureds with claims exceeding the stop loss deductible and another two insureds whose claim totals have exceeded 50% of the stop loss deductible. Overall, we are having a good year, as we did last year, and claims are projected to come in under budget. Claims for the past two years were reviewed and the data was trended forward to arrive at expected claims for the upcoming fiscal year, given that healthcare inflation is currently running at 6.5 - 9%. During committee discussions, members expressed an interest in researching fully insured versus self-insured options, discussing continuation of offering two plans or moving to one plan, and surveying their individual constituent groups to assist with decision making. As the committee began meeting later than normal this year due to faculty negotiations, it was not feasible to accomplish all of this in time for the FY2017 insurance renewal. The committee will address these items in the fall to include a RFP process. After discussions were complete, the six voting members of the committee were split on moving forward with the insurance consultant’s recommendation. Based on all of the provided information, insurance committee discussions, and the insurance consultant’s recommendation, the following is being recommended: 

Continue to offer a High Deductible Plan option accompanied by a Health Savings Account conforming to IRS qualifying regulations. No changes are being recommended to plan design.



Continue to offer the Open Access Plan. No changes are being recommended to plan design as changes made last year appear to have had a very positive effect.

McDonald/Ransdell

49

AGENDA ITEM III.D.1

The following are recommendations of administration and the insurance consultant: 

Establish health insurance rates for the HealthLink Open Access Plan for FY’17 at $941 for Employee only, $1,517 for Employee plus one, and $2,387 for Employee plus two or more. This reflects a 0% increase over last year’s rates.



Establish health insurance rates for the High Deductible Plan coupled with Health Savings Account for FY’17 at $641 for Employee only, $1,101 for Employee plus one, and $1,802 for Employee plus two or more. This reflects a 0% increase over last year’s rates.



Apply the FY2017 Board maximum annual contribution of $10,600 for health insurance, per the faculty collective bargaining agreement, to all College employees. Based on the FY2017 premiums recommended above, the High Deductible Plan will still provide a fully paid, employee only health insurance option for employees. However, employees choosing the Open Access Plan will pay a monthly premium of $57.66 for employee only coverage. Note, however, that, per the terms of their collective bargaining agreement, there will be no monthly premium for the Open Access Plan applied to Facilities Services Union members for the duration of their current contract, which runs through June 30, 2017.



Establish the Board Contribution to an employee’s Health Savings Account for those selecting the High Deductible Plan at the annual amount of $2,908. This is the yearly difference between the $10,600 Board Contribution for health insurance and the cost of employee only coverage under the High Deductible Plan and does not exceed the annual maximum contribution set by the IRS.



Continue to offer dental insurance through Cigna with premiums not to exceed $37.34 per month for Employee only, $80.94 per month for Employee plus one, and $130.74 per month for Employee plus two or more with the monthly Board Contribution not to exceed the premium set for employee only coverage.

The projected health insurance premiums are expected to generate sufficient revenue to pay expected claims, stop loss insurance and third party administrative fees given past claims history and current healthcare inflation of 6.5 - 9%. I would like to take the opportunity to thank the members of the insurance committee for their hard work and due diligence in this process. Voting members of the committee are Stephanie Cummings, Tony DiMaggio, Christie Hovey, Barb Mustered, Junell Ransdell, and Lawrence Strubhart. Advisory members of the committee are Esteban Cruz, Kim Elder, Todd McDonald and Nicole Ralph.
