<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I hope you enjoyed Spring Break, whether you were able to get away, or if it just let you focus on some things you wanted to get accomplished that you never seem to be able to
get to. We sent the notice below to ESD representatives yesterday (Thursday, March 28). You may have already been contacted by your ESD about setting up insurance committee meetings for the 2013-14 plan year.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I would like to take this opportunity to ask that you encourage your insurance committees to consider scheduling time to have OEBB and the insurance carriers come out to talk
about what to expect for the 2013-14 plan year. Not only will we be providing information on any plan or program changes, relevant rule changes and rates, we plan to provide an overview of what OEBB is doing in light of federal healthcare reform and how it
has or may impact the medical plans available through OEBB. All of this information should be considered when making plan selection decisions.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">If you have already worked with your ESD representative to schedule a meeting time or times, you can disregard the rest of this email. If you have been contacted, but haven’t
yet responded with your date(s) and time(s), we urge you to do so as soon as possible to assist both your ESD and OEBB in finalizing and confirming locations, dates and times. If you haven’t heard from your ESD, you can either contact them, or contact Rose
Mann at <a href="mailto:rose.mann@state.or.us">rose.mann@state.or.us</a> to verify whether a meeting or meetings have been scheduled in your area.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Organizing these meetings in a central location helps us meet the demand in the short period of time between releasing plan designs and rates and the end of the school year. We
understand that limiting meetings to ESDs only can be a major inconvenience for some districts and are willing to consider coordinated efforts between districts and community colleges and/or even district-specific meetings when there are no other options.
Our intent is to be as available as possible within the staffing and time constraints we face.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">We look forward to coming out and meeting with the employee groups charged with reviewing options and possibly making plan selections for their co-workers and peers. Please let
us know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<b>Subject:</b> OEBB -- Scheduling 2013 Insurance Committee Meetings<br>
<b>Importance:</b> High<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">It’s that time of the year again! OEBB and its insurance carriers are preparing for meetings with educational entity insurance committees and groups of employees responsible for reviewing
plans and options to determine which benefit plans will be offered to employees for the 2013-14 plan year.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<pre><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">For the past several years, we’ve scheduled most insurance committee meetings through the education service districts (ESDs) located throughout Oregon. This has helped us to be available for many more insurance committee meetings than would otherwise be possible. We really appreciate the time and effort you have put into this the past couple of years. Thank you! <o:p></o:p></span></pre>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<pre><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">We hope you are once again willing to contact or work with the benefit representative or business manager for the districts in your service area to coordinate a date and/or time for in-person insurance committee meetings this year. Last year we lifted the limit of two meetings per ESD and overall it worked pretty well as ESDs and districts were willing to (and were able to for the most part) arrange schedules to accommodate insurance committee members in your area within a two-day period with no more than three meetings in any one day. We also appreciate how flexible you all have been as we’ve tried to coordinate our limited resources during the very tight timeframes we all face.<o:p></o:p></span></pre>
<pre><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></pre>
<pre><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">We will send out an email to individual districts tomorrow afternoon letting them know to anticipate hearing from you regarding scheduling these meetings. We will also encourage districts that are unable to arrange a time that works with their ESD to coordinate with other districts, or even community colleges, in their area to schedule joint meeting times. Our goal is for OEBB/carrier teams to be able to complete all of the meetings needed in a specific area in a three-to four-day period within the block of time designated for the various areas of the state (see below).<o:p></o:p></span></pre>
<pre><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></pre>
<pre><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The regions are divided a little differently than you see traditionally, so we identified the ESDs and community colleges considered to be in each of the areas. <o:p></o:p></span></pre>
