RE: Approval of an agreement between Genesee County and Genesee Health Plan, in an amount not to exceed $5,000,000.00, to provide health care services to uninsured Genesee County residents; this is a millage funded agreement
recommendation
BOARD ACTION REQUESTED:
Approval of a contract between Genesee County and Genesee Health Plan to provide health care insurance services in an amount not to exceed $5,000,000.00 for fiscal year ending 2025.
BACKGROUND:
Genesee County has a dedicated millage to provide a health care services delivery system for uninsured, low-income residents of Genesee County. To help facilitate that, Genesee County has contracted with Genesee Health Plan to deliver those services.
DISCUSSION:
Genesee County originally entered into an agreement with Genesee Health Plan in 2007. Since that time, there have been several amendments that provide for continuation of services. This request will continue those services through September 2025. Because of the lag in receiving billing information, this contract will be effective October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025.
IMPACT ON HUMAN RESOURCES:
There is no impact on HR.
IMPACT ON BUDGET:
The funds are included in the budget and are paid through the dedicated millage from account number 2230-255.01-835.006.
IMPACT ON FACILITIES:
There will be no impact on Facilities.
IMPACT ON TECHNOLOGY:
There will be no impact on IT.
CONFORMITY TO COUNTY PRIORITIES:
In approving this agreement, the Board of County Commissioners will help fulfill their priority of creating a Healthy, Livable, & Safe Community by assisting those without heath care insurance in obtaining coverage.
