•Pharmacy represents 25% of the health plan spend at $195 PMPM
•Mental health claims continue represent over $1.1 million of spend, up 9%
•3 high cost claimants with each over $1 million in spend in the past 12 months
•High-cost claimants continue to represent over 18% of spend over the past 3 years.
The severity of the claims in number and dollar value over stop loss are improving but
this has created higher stop loss premiums over the past few years
•With the continued rising costs of medical and prescription drugs not slowing, the
need to adjust rates to cover expenses is what drives the recommendation for an
increase to funding of 5%
