Greenwich changes insurance carrier for village employees
The Greenwich village council approved switching to Medical Mutual as the health insurer to curb rising premiums. The new plan lowers premiums from about 9,000 to 7,550 for individuals, with a 2,000 deductible for individuals and 4,000 for families. Employees would pay the first 1,000 or 2,000 respectively, while the village covers the rest. The plan is described as Obamacare friendly and aims to avoid future law-driven changes.
