The City of New Port Richey is requesting sealed proposals from qualified employee benefits insurance brokerage firms to provide employee benefits brokerage and consulting services. The City has approximately 210 benefit-eligible employees, with 168 employees currently enrolled in the City's fully insured plans, administered by Acrisure as the broker. The insurance plan year coincides with the City’s fiscal year – October 1 through September 30. The City’s benefit offerings include medical with prescription coverage, dental, vision, basic life and AD&D, an Employee Assistance Plan (EAP), supplemental life, HSA, FSA, and short- and long-term disability. Currently there are also a number of enhanced voluntary benefits, including supplemental insurance through Met Life. The final selected consultant will assist with plan design, identify best practices and trends in benefits, select insurance carriers, and provide ongoing support in areas such as needs assessment, plan management, funding projections, compliance, marketing, annual renewals, and increasing employee engagement and benefit knowledge.
