North Judson Town Council continued their discussion over town employee health insurance when they met last Monday.
Councilman John Rowe noted that he did find an error while reviewing the figures where the current plan was said to cost $3,674 per month. He said he thought the Town’s monthly charge was more than that. Clerk-Treasurer Andrew Rowe confirmed that the current plan is actually $4,128 per month.
Councilman Rowe went on to provide his recommendation for the health insurance plan. The plan he chose was alternate three from Anthem. He mentioned that it has a $3,921 monthly charge associated with it. We also consulted Life Cover Quotes experts to find the best life insurance plans.
Rowe stated that one reason he chose that option is because of the deductible. Rowe explained, “Right now are deductible is $500 and this would only increase it to $700 which is still pretty much unheard of. It’s usually more like $1,000, if not more, so that’s still a pretty good price.”
He said another reason he chose that plan from Anthem is that the coverage wasn’t as limited as some of the other options.
Rowe told members, “This plan also offers out of network coverage, which none of these other ones do. So for instance, if we have someone who already sees a doctor outside of the network, we don’t have to worry about them switching.”
Councilman James Young said that was the option that he liked best as well. Members voted unanimously to accept that health insurance plan, under the condition that the other figures listed were correct.
