Overview

Summary

The Pinellas County Unified Personnel System (UPS) desires to obtain a vision benefit plan for Pinellas County (County) employees.

Background

The County has approximately 3,200 emp­loyees and 1,800 retirees eligible to participate in the Vision Benefits plan.

The County’s plan year is a calendar year from January 1 through December 31. Elections are made during the month of November through online open enrollment. Enrollment in one of the medical plans automatically enrolls the participant in the Vision Benefits plan. Employees and retirees who choose to opt out or decline enrollment in the County medical plans cannot enroll separately in the Vision Benefits plan.

The County is currently contracted with EyeMed to administer the vision benefits program. The current administrative fee is $0.27 per employee per month (PEPM).

Current Vision Plan (see chart) This Plan reflects the minimum plan benefits and coverage that shall be provided under the selected Proposer’s Plan Design, except to the extent that the County has accepted proposed changes or has requested changes. The County is agreeable to reviewing enhanced plan benefits; as an example, increased frame/contacts allowance and make them equal to each other.

The County is NOT interested in a discounted vision program; meaning the County will not award a plan that simply offers a percentage off the Provider’s fee, rather than a defined benefit. The selected Proposer shall administer the Program in accordance with all applicable state and federal laws.
