CIS' Employee Benefits Programs are poised to offer unique and valuable advantages
to your entity and to your employees.
Currently, 197 of the 223 eligible cities in the state (those with paid employees)
participate in CIS' Employee Benefits Program. In addition, over 50 other governmental
agencies receive one or more of the following benefits offered through CIS: medical/vision,
dental, life, accidental death and dismemberment, and long term disability.
CIS Employee Benefits is also your resource for employee meetings, benefit fairs,
benefits consultation, strategic planning, labor/management discussions, and elected
official briefings. We provide information on benefit trends and issues, and we
assist members with benefit claims issues.
Lower plan administrative costs due to large group size.
A larger group has lower administrative costs because the basic expenses are spread
out over more people.
For example:
|
Regence administration (printing books, processing claims, etc.) |
6.0% |
|
CIS administration (staff, EAP, consultants, communication, etc.) |
2.0% |
|
Total Administrative cost |
8.0% |
As a comparison, the normal administrative cost for a group contracting directly
with an insurer would be considerably more:
|
10 employees |
20% |
|
75 employees |
16% |
|
150 employees |
14% |
