From the meeting
The district issued an RFP for medical third-party administrator (TPA) services after Integrity Administrators was acquired by Group Benefit Services (GBS). Administration recommended awarding the contract to Premera Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alaska, which scored highest and offered stronger Alaska provider access. The recommended administrative cost was about $275,000, about $39,740 lower than the other proposal.
The contract would take effect January 1, 2027, making this a useful incumbent and renewal signal for benefits administrators.
