D. From January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013, the City will pay the current
flex dollar amount plus 100% of the increased cost in dental and vision
insurance and the lowest cost HMO plan (currently the Blue Shield
NetValue HMO plan or the Blue Shield HMO plan) available through
PERS in San Luis Obispo County. If a lower cost HMO plan is made
available by PERS in San Luis Obispo County, then the City and the POA
will meet to discuss if the benefits are comparable.
E. A portion of the flex dollar allowance ($112.00) is identified as the City's
contribution towards PEMHCA. This amount will be adjusted on an
annual basis as the PEMHCA minimum contribution increases.
Remaining flex dollars must be used by employees to participate in the
City's health plans. Employees who waive medical coverage under the
Cafeteria Plan because he/she provided the City with written proof that
medical insurance coverage is in force through coverage provided by
another source, consistent with any rules or restrictions on the City by the
medical plan provider, can take flex dollars for the amount provided to
employees enrolled for self alone (taxable income), deposit it into their
457 plan, or use it to purchase voluntary products. No remaining flex
dollars may be redeemed.
