[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The way it works is the contract is up and they go out to bid. If your existing healthcare didn’t put up a competitive bid, they switch to another company. That is their obligation in their effort to keep healthcare costs down for all of you and for taxpayers. County employees are not on the same plan but same thing can happen to them (and has). County employees are also under a different pension.[/quote] I would have never guessed that BC would end up being a better deal than Kaiser. [/quote] Sometimes insurance companies charge the “rent seeking” premium. They know it’s a pain to switch, but they also know exactly how much it costs to cover you, so they are going to bake that profit in with every renewal. Have you ever seen your homeowners or car policy go up year after year only to save hundreds by switching? Same idea.[/quote]
