poration resides and shall reside within one of the Sponsoring

Dear Mr. Askins:
Enclosed is a copy of the only opinion I have. As I said, I've heard
rumors about another opinion dealing with cities, but most of my sources
don't know anything about it.
I've checked with several other people as well as reviewing some health
insurance contracts and a rate guarantee is just not a part of this type
of contract. However, it is extremely rare for an insurer to change
rates mid -year in other than a conventional insured program. Further,
the only part of an ASO program that has a premium rate is the individual
stop -loss which is only about $7,400 in the Hartford quote.
is
If I can be of further assistance, please let me know.
Yours very truly,
RIMCO RISK MANAGEMENT

aza, suite 400
You are specifically concerned with whether there is authority
o,'Tx. 78205.2797
for such a plan to be self -funded by the county, rather than through
j
the purchase'of insurance from•an insurance company. We have found
only one statutory provision' that would empower a commissioners court
purtunity!
to do this. A commissioners court of a county having a population of
.action Employer
500,000 or more is authorized to adopt ' rules and regulations to
establish a hospital and insurance fund for county employees as ,a part
of their employment contract. V.T.C.S. art. 2372h, 4z. Claims are to -
b:. cc-sistin o cf ccrtributions by employees and- the
county. Benefits received under the plan are considered part of the
e-mployee•s.compensation. ,However, you indicate that you intend to
•
have dependents covered under the same proposal, ana'we find nothing
in article 2372h that would permit such dependents to come within the
statute. To the extent the county attempts to collect premiums from
the employees for the benefit of their dependents, such self -funded
plan would not be authorized by article 2372b and would contrzvenu the
texas Insurance Code.
The Texas Insurance Code requires .authorization by the State
Board of Insurance before a person or entity can engage in the
business of •insurance.• Ins. Code art. 1.14,,51: The business of '
insurance is defined as the commission of one or more acts set forth
#n article 1.14-1, section 2 (a), subsection 4 of the Insurance Code
which include:
The receiving or collection of any premium,
co=_ission, membership fees, assessments, dues or.
other consideration for any insurance or 2ny part -
thereof.
The receiving or collection of employee contributions for
dependents to participate in the proposed plan would ".constitute
collection of a premium.
• Although 2 co=-iissioners court may adopt rules and regulations to
implement a self-insurance fund as authorized under section 2 of
article 2372h, such fund must comply with the restraints set forth in
that statute. We have found no other authority which would permit a
county to implement a self -funded program to pay health claims of its
: employees. Fowever, a county may not collect premiums from employees
to pay for the participation of dependents in the self-insurance
*am, since such would constitute the unauthorized business of
insurance in violation of article 1.14-1•of the Texas Insurance Cgde.
S U M M A R Y •
A commissioners court nay establish a
self-insurance fund under article 2372h, section
2, V.T.C.S., for the benefit of county officials
and employees, but the county may not collect
premiums from employees for the inclusion of
• dependents in the self-insurance fund.

ANALYSIS
•
Any numerical comparison of the types of proposals made' to the City of
La Porte must be accompanied by a discussion of the structural differ-
ences which are significant. The primary differences are cash flow and
the degree to which total cost is sensitive to actual loss experience.
In a conventional insured program the rates are guaranteed for a certain
period of time. If losses are lower than expected, the insurance
company makes a larger profit; if losses are greater than expected, no.
additional charge is made for that year's losses. However, for a group
the size of the City of La Porte, the actual loss experience will be
considered in calculting the renewal insurance rates. Monthly cost is
stable as it varies only with the actual number of employees and depend-
ents.
A retention plan differs from a conventional plan only in the way
renewal rates are calculated. Actual losses and insurance company
expense are compared to premium and a surplus on deficiency is deter-
mined. This surplus or deficiency is then a more direct part of the
calculation of renewal premium rates than in a conventional insurance
program.
A retro program is a more loss sensitive insured program which typically
allows for a reduced premium paid during the policy year of about 10%.
The insurance company then has a right to additional premiums if justi-
fied by the loss experience. Monthly payments are even throughout the
policy year just like a conventional program, but an additional payment
of premium may be required at the end of the year. Some companies allow
a 90 day premium deferral with their retro so that most of the cash flow
advantages of a self -insured plan are achieved.
A minimum premium plan allows the insured to pay losses as they occur;
the monthly premium cost is for excess coverage and services only. This
allows the insured to retain the cash flow benefits. This plan is also
loss sensitive such that total cost is lower than the plans previously
discussed if actual losses are lower than expected, but a higher total
cost is generated when actual losses are higher. The degree of loss
limitation (excess coverage) included in the plan varies with each
insurance company.
The Administrative Services Only (ASO) plan is a self -insured plan with
excess coverage for each individual and an aggregate stop -loss at 125%
of expected paid claims as estimated by the insurance company. The
expenses for service and excess coverage are generally lower in this
type of plan than any other but the potential for higher total cost due

self-insurance are retained by the self -insured.
stable, this is generally the most cost-effective
cash flow benefits of
If losses remain
program available.
The Summary of Lowest Cost Proposals reflects the estimated cost of each
proposal at expected cost and at maximum cost. The main issues to
consider in choosing the optimal proposal are the estimated cost,
maximum cost, cash flow advantages, and the degree of fluctuation in
cost which is acceptable to the City of La Porte.
In evaluating estimated cost from this Summary, the difference between
the lowest cost (Fred. S. James ASO Plan) and the highest cost (Strum/ -
Hartford Minimum Premium Plan) is $15,124. However, there is much
greater difference in the potential maximum cost. The Blue Cross/Blue
Shield conventional plan offers the least amount of fluctuation in cost
and the most even cash flow, but it does not allow for any savings if
losses are lower than expected or any cash flow advantages. The esti-
mated total cost is $9,699 higher than the lowest cost alternative (ASO)
if you consider the amount of claims to be paid in subsequent years in
the ASO program. However, the nature of the cash flow of an ASO plan is
such that the claims incurred in year one but paid in subsequent years
becomes a part of the subsequent year cost. Therefore, the lag in
claims payment can be viewed as a "permanent" deferral.
From this perspective, the difference in expected cost between the Blue
Cross/Blue Shield plan and the Fred. S. James plan is $105,362 in year
one but would be fairly close to the same cost in subsequent years if
losses remain at expected levels. If losses increase, claims paid in
the ASO plan will cause an increase in total cost, but second year
premiums in the insured plan would also increase. In effect, an organi-
zation the size of the City of La Porte will ultimately pay most (if not
all) of its own losses plus expenses under any of these plans -- the
difference is primarily one of timing.
It is our opinion that the City of La Porte should select either the
Blue Cross/Blue Shield plan or the Fred. S. James plan, depending on the
degree of risk and fluctuation in cash flow the City is comfortable
with.

MALATHION
On February 9, 1983 I ordered 864 gallons of Malathion for use by
the Street Department in mosquito control. The Malathion was pur-
chased under an existing agreement with Public Health. Equipment and
Supply Company approved by City Council on April It. 1982.
The contract called for an initial purchase of 864 gallons of Malathion
for $17.43 per gallon and a guaranteed price for one year.
Upon review of the minutes from the meeting of April 2B. 1982 it
appears that Council only approved a one time purchase of 864 gallons
of Malathion and was not aware that an annual agreement was being
approved.
In light of the above. I recommend a motion from City Council to
amend the minutes from April 21. 1982 and extend the contract for
Malathion for the fiscal year 1982-83 so that payment can be made
to Public Health Equipment and Supply Company under the terms of the
April 1982 agreement.
