Self-Insurance Board 6/30/26

The Sumner County Self-Insurance Board held a meeting on June 30, 2026, primarily focused on employee health insurance appeals and policy updates. Two employees addressed the board regarding issues with missed communications about required physicals and denied waiver requests related to health plan compliance. The board discussed the appeals process, including a request to reconsider denied waivers and the need for clearer guidelines. A motion was made and passed to adopt a revised appeals policy to improve future handling of such cases. The board also agreed to separate approval of individual appeals from the adoption of the new policy. No specific contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this meeting.
