SEGIP Announcement

Great news announced today by SEGIP . . . . .

The State Employee Group Insurance Program (SEGIP) has updated its review of the 2010/2011 plan year and determined that the scheduled 6.7% increase to the health plan rates for 2011 will not be necessary. As a result of better than expected performance, the MN Advantage Health Plan premiums will remain at the 2010 level. This allows the MN Advantage Plan to maintain its current premiums for the third year in a row. The newly revised 2011 rates are currently available on the MMB website http://www.mmb.state.mn.us/doc/ins/oe/ee/ee-rates-health.pdf.

The scheduled 2011 premium changes for dental and basic life remain in place.
