THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
IMA presented a 2027 State Employee Health Plan budget projection showing an 11.5% cost increase to $1,421,218. They will conduct a market analysis to compare staying in SEHP versus moving to a direct carrier, even considering early termination penalties on the existing 3-year contract. The County could request competitive proposals as early as September for a January 1 change.
Insurance carriers and benefits consultants have a near-term window to pitch alternative plans, wellness programs, or cost-management strategies ahead of the County’s decision.
County is under SEHP multi-year agreement but is explicitly considering marketing the plan and possibly exiting early if proposals are competitive.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
