Purpose

Resolution Authorizing Changes to the Sauk County Offered Vision Insurance.

Resolution Body

BACKGROUND: Sauk County currently offers vision insurance for its employees through Superior Vision. The current coverage offers two plans (Exam & Materials Plan and Materials Only Plan).

The Human Resources Director reviewed vision insurance options with our insurance broker, M3 Insurance. These included only offering one plan through Superior Vision, DeltaVision (through Delta Dental of Wisconsin) and VSP Vision Care. It was determined that a switch to DeltaVision would expand the current provider network, improve plan benefits, and decrease the cost of this insurance.

The proposal with DeltaVision reduces the Sauk County plan offerings to one option (DeltaVision Full Plan) improving plan administration. It also includes a four-year rate guarantee (until 1/1/2029).

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Sauk County Board of Supervisors, that Sauk County changes the vision insurance benefit to DeltaVision.
