Background:
Human Resources released a request for proposals for Flexible Spending Account (FSA) administrative services on March 22, 2024. Following review and evaluation, staff recommends that the FSA administration contract be awarded to P&A.
The proposal is being recommended for the following reasons:
• Positive customer service statistics
• Customer service availability
• Flexibility for county internal processes and funding arrangements
• The county will see a cost saving when compared to current year through P&A proposal with a multiyear rate guarantee and performance expectation metrics.
P&A is currently providing these services that meet and exceed performance expectations.
