WHEREAS, an RFP for Health Care Coverage for City employees was issued with responses due
September 12, 2012; and,
WHEREAS, three (3) insurers submitted responses including various options for coverage; and,
WHEREAS, after review of the options, the City's contracted consultants for benefit plans have
recommended our accepting one of the options offered by the incumbent provider, QualChoice (QCA);
and,
WHEREAS, a review of the coverage, including requirements of PPACA, was conducted and an
option offered by QCA which most closely matches our current plan and maintains the "deductible
credit" wellness option was determined to offer the best combination of premium rates and coverage;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE CITY
OF LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS:
Section 1. The City Manager is authorized to extend the current contract with QCA to provide health
care insurance benefits to City employees for the year 2013.

word of this resolution is declared or adjudged to be invalid or unconstitutional, such declaration or
adjudication shall not affect the remaining portions of the resolution which shall remain in full force and
