ACHIEVEMENTS
Risk Management sought and was awarded approval from the Industrial Commission of Arizona to self‐insure/self‐administer the Workers’ Compensation Program for another year (January 1, 2019‐December 31, 2019). While the motion was originally placed on Commission Consent Agenda, Chairman Shultz pulled the item from Consent to boast about the success of the program and ask that the City share its story with the Board and public in attendance. Chairman Shultz shared that he continuously shares the story and data related to the program at the City of Surprise in his speaking engagements around the State of Arizona and country.
Just as the City was completing claim processing and payment on the large‐loss monsoon damage suffered at our baseball stadium in July, another significant loss surfaced. Over the Thanksgiving holiday break, a direct supply water line, feeding a coffee maker in Council Chambers, disengaged from the machine resulting in significant damage to the facility and audio visual equipment. The loss, still being permanently resolved, is nearing $150,000.00 in losses to the City. Risk Management was able to persuade the insurance carrier to allow for losses to be applied to the Property policy, as opposed to Flood Coverage, offering substantially more coverage, with an associated deductible of only $1,000.00. FY19, to date, has resulted in unique insurance coverage exceptions (typically not achieved), yielding over $1 million in recovery that would have been lost by the City.
The hallway point of FY19 is still trending positively in relation to workplace injury frequency and associated costs. At this point, the City is poised to improve upon the unprecedented savings achieved in FY18 in our newly self‐administered Workers’ Compensation Program. Total medical expenditures to date are down an additional 52% to $25,914.66 from $53,598.85, for the same time period last year.
