THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The committee approved using about $475,000 from a separate district funding source to cover the plan's largest claimant for 2026–2027 instead of paying through the self-funded health plan. This one-year strategy is meant to lower the required premium increase by 4.5%–6% without dipping into health plan reserves. While not a direct procurement, it signals active management of stop-loss exposure and funding strategy, which could open conversations around analytics, actuarial consulting, or risk management tools.
Consultants from Alliant and Bridged Health Alliance modeled the financial impact of this strategy.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
