Insurance discussed

Jay County Commissioners met with representatives from Understand, Service and Innovate (USI) Insurance Services on Wednesday afternoon.

Tom Schweisthal of USI Insurance Services broke down concerns brought forward into the following categories: open enrollment concerns, billing and carrier concerns, service concerns and employee issues or concerns.

Schweisthal agreed to set up a weekly phone call, including a meeting to be held soon involving Jay County auditor Emily Franks, USI representatives and a representative from insurance company Physicians Health Plan, to hash out various insurance questions.

The county switched to USI Insurance Services from its previous broker, OneDigital, in November.
