Resolution 12200 and Staff ReportCity of Alameda
Inter - department Memorandum
February 11, 1992
TO: Honorable Mayor and
Councilmembers
FROM: Elizebeth B. Kingsley
Personnel Director
RE: Resolution Electing To Be Subject To Public Employees'
Medical And Hospital Care Act Fixing The Employer's
Contribution For Employees And The Employer's Contribution
For Annuitants At Different Amounts And Applicable Rates
Background
The Public Employees Medical and Hospital Care Act was amended in
1967 to permit.a public agency who was participating in the PERS
retirement system to elect participation in the health benefits
program. A wide variety of approved health plans are offered
representing many different philosophies of medical health care
delivery.
Discussion
The City of Alameda Health Care Task Force worked through 1989 to
review all the possible health care options for cost, variety of
health plans, and availability to all employees living in extended
Bay Area locations. The Committee, consisting of members from all
the bargaining units, recommended the PERS Health Care System.
This system offers both current City health plans (Heals and
Kaiser) and has a number of other advantages including the
availability of enrollment to all retirees. As part of the
negotiations with Alameda City Employees Association, it was agreed
by the City Council that at the time the City contracted with PERS,
the members of the ACEA bargaining unit would also be offered the
opportunity to enroll in the Operating Engineers Local No. 3 Health
and Welfare Trust. This allows those eligible City employees to
have another health care option, which is a qualified PERS plan.
Additionally, the PERS Health Care System offers open enrollment
each year so that participants may change their enrollment as their
health care needs change.

Budget Considerations
The City's Labor Relations team negotiated this change with all
bargaining units. Current contract language enables this change
and the appropriate rates for the PERS plan were negotiated. The
financial impact of the medical insurance costs were considered at
the time the Memorandum of Understandings were negotiated. The
costs vary depending upon the negotiated language reflected in the
letters of understanding with each bargaining unit.
Recommendation
Recommend approval of resolution authorizing agreement with Public
Employees Retirement System Health Benefits Program and the
appropriate negotiated rates.
Respectfully submitted,.
