Jim, 3 documents will need your signature. Please return those to me for submittal. Need soon as we have a deadline date with ING in order to secure the rates without submitting new claims information. Information from Mercer below about the documents. Please let me know if you have questions. Thanks, Amy ............................................................................... Master Application After reviewing the large claim detail that we sent them ING is willing to take 2% off of their initial quoted rates. I've attached a new master application with the updated first month's deposit. This document needs to be signed in order to secure coverage with ING. I am also including a finalized proposal (City of Fort Collins Proposal - Final-UMR.pdf) showing the final rates of $26.58 for single coverage and $66.93 for family coverage (2% below their initial rates). This proposal is for your records only and doesn't require signature. Disclosure Form (everything listed in the "box" has already been sent to ING — no further action required there as long as we get this signed within 30 days) Compensation Disclosure ING requires that all of their customers receive this information regardless of how the broker involved is being compensated. In this case, since Mercer is not receiving any additional compensation from ING, Todd Tyson confirmed that you could write in a comment to that effect before signing and returning. We weren't able to convince ING to alter the wording in that document since its one of their standard legal forms. JIM - you can write on the form, "The City's Benefits Consultant, currently Mercer, is not to receive commissions, bonuses, or administrative fees now or in the future on behalf of City of Fort Collins" Ci of Amy Sharkey, CCP, CBP, GRP Fort Collins 9 0-416-2721 Benefits, and HRIS Manager Nyman .
