The Covered Person must be under age 70 to get a converted policy. If the Covered Person's insurance or any portion of it ends for non-payment of premium, he may not convert. If the Covered Person's insurance ends for a reason described in 2. below,conversion is subject to that section. The converted policy or certificate will cover accidental death and dismemberment. The policy or certificate will not contain disability or other additional benefits. The Covered Person need not show Us that he is insurable. If the Covered Person has converted his group coverage and later becomes insured under the same group plan as before,he may not convert a second time unless he provides,at his own expense,proof of insurability or proof the prior converted policy is no longer in force. The Covered Person must apply for the individual policy within 31 days after his coverage under this Group Policy ends and pay the required premium,based on Our table of rates for such policies, his Age and class of risk.

If the Covered Person suffers a Covered Loss or dies during this 31-day period as the result of an accident that would have been covered under this Group Policy,We will pay as a claim under this Group Policy the amount of insurance that the Covered Person was entitled to convert. It does not matter whether the Covered Person applied for the individual policy or certificate. If such policy or certificate is issued, it will be in exchange for any other benefits under this Group Policy. The individual policy or certificate will take effect on the day following the date coverage under the Group Policy ended;or,if later,the date application is made. Exclusions The converted policy may exclude the hazards or conditions that apply to the Covered Person's group coverage at the time it ends. We will reduce payment under the converted policy by the amount of any benefits paid under the group policy if both cover the same loss. 2. If the Covered Person's insurance ends because this Group Policy is terminated or is amended to terminate insurance for the Covered Person's class, and he has been covered under this Group Policy or, any group accident insurance issued to the Employer which the Group Policy replaced, for at least five years,the Covered Person may have Us issue an individual policy or certificate of accident insurance subject to the same terms, conditions and limitations listed above. However,the amount he may apply for will be limited to the lesser of the following: a. coverage under this Group Policy less any amount of group accident insurance for which he is eligible on the date this Group Policy is terminated or for which he became eligible within 31 days of such termination,or b. $10,000. 9 Extension of Conversion Period If the Covered Person is eligible to convert and is not notified of this right at least 15 days prior to the end of the 31 day conversion period,the conversion period will be extended.

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORTH AMERICA Matthew G.Manders,President GA-00-2230c.00 25 UNDERWRITTEN BY: LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORT❑ AMERICA a Cigna company Class 1 03/2018 Cigna. �.✓� Jig � O T Agenda Item: Consent Calendar - 7H TO: City Council DATE: November 21, 2017 SUBJECT: Contract Renewals for Medical, Dental, Vision, Basic Life, Voluntary Life, and Long Term Disability Insurance - Authorize MOTION: Authorize the Mayor to approve renewal of the City's contracts for medical, vision, and dental benefits with Premera, Vision Service Plan (VSP), and Delta Dental for three years, and Kaiser Permanente (formerly Group Health) for one year, and to approve switching from Standard Insurance to Cigna for a new 3-year contract for Basic Life, Voluntary Life, and Long Term Disability insurance, subject to approval of final terms and conditions by the Human Resources Director and the City Attorney. SUMMARY: The City of Kent contracts with Premera Blue Cross, Delta Dental of Washington and Vision Service Plan, to be third party administrators to process medical, dental, and vision claims, and provide access to their networks of doctors, hospitals, dentists, optometrists and ophthalmologists. The City is self-insured for these programs and wires funds to cover the weekly claims cost for medical, prescription, dental, and vision expenses. The City also contracts with Kaiser Permanente for the City's insured health maintenance organization. After conducting separate request for proposal processes for each of these services, staff recommends renewal of these contracts with the current vendors. After holding a request for proposal process, and discussions with the City's Healthcare Board, staff recommends a move from our current vendor for long-term disability services and basic life, AD&D and voluntary life insurance to Cigna. Although all core contract terms have been resolved with these providers, the City and the providers are still in the process of winding up final contract language. These vendors also have their own lengthy internal approval process, so authorization is sought now to get approval for next year's budget cycle. EXHIBITS: Memo to the Operations Committee RECOMMENDED BY: Operations Committee YEA: Boyce, Ralph, Thomas NAY: N/A BUDGET IMPACTS: Premera - $1,345,000 for a three year contract; Delta Dental - $165,330 for a three year contract; Vision Service Plan - $56,100 for a three year contract; Kaiser Permanente - $420,000 for a one year contract; and Cigna - $705,000 for a three year contract.

All bids were reviewed by the Human Resources Director, the Benefits Manager, and discussed with members of the City's Healthcare Board. Medical, dental, and vision insurance bids were received from Premera, Aetna, HMA, Regence, Kaiser Permanente (formerly Group Health), Delta Dental, and Vision Service Plan (VSP). United Healthcare declined participation. Our current providers, Premera, Delta Dental, and VSP are recommended to renew for additional three-year contracts and Kaiser Permanente for a one-year renewal, based on the strength of their plans, overall costs, customer service, discounts, and overall administration and billing accuracy. Basic Life and AD&D, Voluntary Life and Long Term Disability insurance bids were received from our current vendor, Standard Insurance, and also from Cigna and Mutual of Omaha. The recommendation is to move from our current vendor, Standard Insurance, to Cigna for long-term disability services, basic life insurance, AD&D, and employee and dependent voluntary life insurance for the following reasons: • Savings of approximately $100k per year in each of the three years of the proposed new contract; and • Increase in employee basic life insurance coverage from 1 x salary up to $50,000 to 1 x salary up to $150,000. Employees will have the opportunity to purchase additional voluntary life insurance for themselves and their family members at a significantly lower rate than is available through Standard. Staff has received excellent feedback regarding Cigna from current customers about their billing accuracy, systems, overall administration, and customer service. Locally the City of Kirkland just moved to Cigna for these services. All other contract features are identical to our current offering from Standard.
