City Council switches health plan admin to Principal
Cedar Rapids city council, after early protests over rising health care costs, approved moving administration of city employee claims from Wellmark Blue Cross Blue Shield to Principal Financial. The change aims to save about 475,000 over two years on 13.1 million in annual medical claims, with further rising costs projected if plans fail. Beginning July 1, employee premiums and employer costs shift, and wellness program savings are debated against stop loss.2 lines
