The RCTV Purchasing Committee held a meeting on May 28, 2026, primarily focused on procurement decisions related to employee benefits and mental health transport services. The committee approved the recommendation from Gallagher and the insurance risk management department to award Cigna the contract for medical, dental, vision, and pharmacy administrative services effective January 1, 2027. The decision followed a competitive RFP process with multiple qualified bidders and included considerations for maintaining current pharmacy networks to minimize disruption. The committee also approved contracts for mental health transport services, selecting T-Mobile as the primary provider and First Call as the secondary. Additionally, a construction contingency totaling $765,444 was returned to the county from the forensic center project, enabling the purchase of a needed full-body CAT scan. The meeting included discussions on contract terms, potential plan additions, and future procurement steps for stop-loss insurance and other benefits.
