There will be no rate increase for 2018/2019 PPO plans.

The Premier, Standard and CDHP plans have been enriched as well.

• The Premier Plan's calendar year out-of-pocket medical is now $2,500 (reduced from $3,000) per person and $5,000 (reduced from $6,000) for family.
• The Standard Plan's calendar year out-of-pocket medical is now $3,500 (reduced from $4,000) per person and $7,000 (reduced from $8,000) for family.
• The Basic Plan was enriched in 2017/18 as the deductible is now $1,000 (reduced from $1,500) per person and $2,000 (reduced from $3,000) for family, and the coinsurance is now 30% (reduced from 50%).
• The CDHP Plan's medical deductible is now $1,500 (reduced from $1,750) per person and $3,000 (reduced from $3,500) for family and the calendar year out-of-pocket medical is now $5,000 (reduced from $6,450) per person and $10,000 (reduced from $12,900) for family.

There will also be no rate increases for our dental and vision plans. This rate lock is partly the result of a multi-year effort of work by the JPA (with LTCC representative participation) to better contain costs, renegotiate better medical provider contracts, and be more efficient.
