JHCC Report from Sept. 25, 2015 meeting 1. This meeting provided health plan round ups on:
• Fourth quarter FY15 plan use (Lockton) (27 page PDF) Use spiked. • FY16 enrollment migration (who shifted plans in open enrollment) (Lockton)
Users stabilized; little plan switching this time. • FY16 Wellness plan; look ahead to FY17 rebate (Erika Van Flein, UA staff) (5
page PDF, includes proposals for FY17 incentives) • FY15 final report (Timothy Armbuster, UA staff)
These reports are all attached as PDFs to our Oct. 1 UAA Staff Council agenda. 2. For discussion at our Oct. 1 meeting:
1. Proposals for FY17 wellness point system. Please review the proposed new options in this PDF titled: University of Alaska FY 17 (July 1, 2015) JHCC. JHCC will be deciding these at their next meeting, so now is a good time to look at them, propose changes that I can take back to the Oct. 21 JHCC meeting
2. Sarah Rodewald, Healthy Roads, can be on UAA campus on Nov 11 or
12 or both. What do we want from her? 3. Takeaways from health care plan and wellness plan reports to JHCC:
• Fourth quarter FY15 saw spike in use of health plan; speculation that news of layoffs and furloughs drove that– as people jumped on health issues for fear of losing insurance. This is supported by increased claims in the lower ranges -- $10,000 to $50,000. Good news, we have had a drop in the most expensive catastrophic claims, but this lower range of claims ($10,000-$50,000) crept up, so we did not get the benefit of the catastrophic claim drop.
• In pharmacy, big drivers are high-cost specialty drugs that do not have generics. Plan use of generics is very high, which is very good. But these specialty drugs are very expensive and more are coming.
• Examples include creams created out of several drugs ground together as compounds, aimed at users who cannot swallow pills. Very expensive. Lockton suggests UAA control use of these by lowering to $50 medical necessity threshold. Now medical necessity is set at $200.
• Very expensive drugs for HEPATITIS C. Effective, but want to make sure patients that get them need them. Will require doctors’ chart notes etc to approve. Worth it because saves a liver transplant.
• Plan migration has stabilized between the three plans, considered good.
1010
• ER visits were appropriate use of ER, which is good. But ER is very expensive. Hoping a full year of Telemedicine support will lower ER use.
• Wellness (Healthy Roads) cost $522,685 for FY 15, the first full year of the program.
• 38% of eligible employees got the $600 rebate 28% of eligible spouses got the $600 rebate
• Lockton said a 60 percent use rate would be the minimum to call wellness plan successful. But Erik Seastedt and Erika Van Flein said at conferences they have heard groups crow about a 32 percent use rate. This led to some discussion about making the rebate a “double your PFD” one-time payout, but HR says trouble is employees are leaving the system all the time. If you give it out once instead of monthly paycheck additions, you could be giving it to employees who leave.
• Further discussion – what is the true test of wellness plan success? Is it participation, or is it lowered health care costs?
• Travel benefit for medical care. Premera has 17 procedures already covered. Erika thinks there should be more. If you can make the case that travel will cut cost, she will work with Premera to add it. Cataract surgery – Fairbanks physician charged 3 times as much as Anchorage, so they paid for someone to come to Anchorage for it.
• Considering Centers of Excellence – you must get procedure there because they have agreed to do it a certain cost.

The Major Diagnostic categories are aligned with the major sections of the ICD9-CM. In general, categories 780-796 include the more ill-defined conditions and symptoms that point with perhaps equal suspicion to two or more diseases or to two or more systems of the body, and without the necessary study of the case to make a final diagnosis. Practically all categories in this group could be designated as "not otherwise specified," or as "unknown etiology," or as "transient."Examples: Fever, Convulsions, Chest Pain, Abdominal Pain.
Other
The Major Diagnostic categories are aligned with the major sections of the ICD9-CM. The “Other” category consists of claims with diagnoses that don’t map to the ICD9-CM, mostly Rx and Dental claims. Excluding those benefits from the Benefit checkbox list will usually reduce “Other” to a negligible amount.
Also known as "V-Codes" (i.e., V70.0) Usually used as a secondary diagnosis, but sometimes appears in the primary. Full details available in the ICD9 diagnosis book. General Medical Examination is common1. Non-sick persons encountering the system (donors, family doc counseling, vaccines, etc)
2. Sick person encountering the system for treatment of a known (ongoing) disease or injury.
3. When a circumstance or problem is present that influences the patient's health, but isn't itself an illness (personal or family history health hazards, circumstances related to reproduction and development, etc)

Origami Claims System Presentation by Patti Wilson
o The Origami system went live last year. o Anyone can log on if they have a UA password & ID, including students, to report and incident. o It’s recommended that an employee and manager submit a report together so information is
correct. o Chris Turletes: Logged in – walking through submitting an incident.
Unsafe condition report – Example – need to clear a tree away from the trail. Report damaged UA property – damage to our facilities. Damaged UA vehicles including rentals or non-UA vehicle.
o Submissions are routed very quickly and allows response possibly within hours. o Reports must be submitted within hours to receive workman’s compensation, we recommend
the employee sit down with their employers to ensure everything is done correctly. o For the persons who need to save details of the claim.
Please keep a screen shot because when you hit submit you can no longer access the claim. We’re working on this issue.
Drew @ KPC. Our director expressed concern about this process, because he may receive a phone call someday about an incident he’s not aware of. Is there any way to have an email sent that gives him a heads up so he’s prepared to answer any questions? We can provide automatic emails. Send Doug Markussen and Patty Wilson an email and this can be set up.
Drew @ KPC. Are either of these reports set up to cover reports of vehicles in parking lots? Yes – You might select damaged non-ua vehicle. We wouldn’t have coverage
but would allow us to contact that person about the issue. Drew Baker @ KPC. Injury of non-ua employee: if treatment is not sought do we need
to follow up with our own report? (For example, a student shows up at the health clinic who slipped and fell. The clinic wants to call for medical assistance and the student refuses, should we report?)
8080
We’d leave it up to your discretion unless it’s a minor. • Drew @ KPC--Would lean toward reporting everything because then
you can track trends. o Patty agrees. Excellent point.
Chris T. - What happens if you start a report but get pulled away in the middle of it? Patty. There is a save button but it needs evaluation and testing.
Student Development – Dewain Lee:
• Bridget Dooley is the Title IX Coordinator now. o We have two new people on campus to respond: Robbin Clausen and Jessica Stillwell.
They may contact many around the table just to get acquainted.
Safety – Health Franklin:
• 500 flu vaccines will be in by next Friday, and we are on track to receive them on time this year.
Safety Awareness Week – SafeTember.
• Amanda Murdock - Safety week is the 3rd week of September. o RAD classes by UPD in Commons. o Cooking safety program. o Spice (the drug) awareness. o Resource fair at the end of the month.
• Ryan Henne - Signage examples passed around the table.
UPD- Brad Munn:
• Annual security report is being compiled. • Violence against Women Act, Save Act – must report all incidence or domestic and dating
violence and assault, and staking incidents. We already report these incidents, but any violation of the new law found in an audit will enact a $35,000 fine.
• Must contact other departments and APD for information on any incidents what occur on our campus.
• Assigned officers to dorms for student support, and officers must conduct 2 activities per semester with their dorms.
• AAC Events - AFN event. Few security issues, the event went smoothly. • Normal training took place.

• Kenai – nothing new to report. • PWSCC – nothing new to report. • Kodiak – nothing new to report.
Around the table
• Access issues such as uneven pavement. • Restroom signs for people with low vision. • Tom Hendriks – there is no link to autism in flue shot.
o Shots take weeks to take effect. o For older folks the statistics are pretty overwhelming in support of getting the shot.
• Sarah – Online calendar is there for your use, to report important events. There are instructions but please call if you have questions.
• Chris – can we post a G&G announcement from info today? Need more info. o Dewain will get info to her.
• Mark Fitch – Bike Racks have disappeared, which has caused an overflow of bikes locked in unusual areas causing a safety issue.
o Chris – we’ll put some back over there. • Mark – question on homeless campus. Are we under state restrictions for getting rid of stuff?
o Chris - yes. We give them a notice for 15 days, and then are legally allowed to move them.
• Sarah – were any in those campus students? o Chris – yes two looked like there were, but only in unoccupied camps.
• Mark – Faculty questions about newly renovated spaces. o A lot of glass on conference rooms leaves those inside feeling vulnerable. Also glass
office doors can leave those in a confidential situation feeling vulnerable. For those changing clothes, that can’t happened behind glass.
o UAV quadcopter in operations near UAA. They were in compliance with every law that I’m aware of. It was young people and the thought it was neat. Can see copter races that may not end well if they’re near our buildings. Chris- We do need some form of policy about that.

Mission Statement Development Committee September 23, 2015 Staff Council The Mission Statement Development Committee was charged with combining and updating the mission statements from APT and Classified Councils to create a new Staff Council mission. The committee met on Tuesday, September 22, 2015 to draft a mission to share with Staff Council. Dr. Ryan-Jasen Anders Henne, Director of Residence Life, led the committee through a mission statement development workshop during which committee members went through a series of steps to come up with a draft mission statement. For reference, here are the mission statements from the University, APT Council and Classified Council: UAA The mission of the University of Alaska Anchorage is to discovered and disseminate knowledge through teaching, research, engagement, and creative expression. Located in Anchorage and on community campuses in Southcentral Alaska, UAA is committed to serving the higher education needs of the state, its communities, and its diverse peoples. The University of Alaska Anchorage is an open access university with academic programs leading to occupational endorsements; undergraduate and graduate certificates; and associate, baccalaureate, and graduate degrees in a rich, diverse, and inclusive environment. APT Council The APT Council plays a vital role at the University of Alaska Anchorage. The mission of the Council is to serve as a center for input and dissemination of information. The Council provides opportunities for concerns and recommendations to reach the appropriate channels for consideration. APT membership is comprised of representatives of the university staff elected by the Council membership. Classified Council The mission of the Classified Council is to serve as the voice of classified staff, representing and advocating their concerns throughout the University community. The Council is a resource for inquires and requests from employees. Classified Council strives to engage and educate classified employees and make them an integral part of the University community.
9292
Dr. Henne shared with the committee best practices in regards to mission statement development, including:
1. Mission statements should ideally be one sentence (not a run-on sentence though), but at most two sentences.
2. Mission statements should accurately reflect the purpose of an organization. An outsider should be able to read your mission statement and know exactly what your purpose is as an organization.
3. Mission statements are generally good for about 5-10 years. They should then be re-evaluated to ensure they accurately reflect the current purpose and goals of the organization.
4. It is ok to include aspirational statements in your mission if you are actively seeking to steer the organization in that direction in the next 5 years.
5. The mission statement should demonstrate congruence with the larger mission of the University.
6. Lists within a mission statement generally start with the most important item first to give emphasis to the main function of an organization.
To start the process, the committee identified three main functions that Staff Council serves:
1. The dissemination of information to staff 2. Representing concerns of staff to the leadership of the University 3. A consulting body for University leadership to tap for feedback and input on
decision-making With these main functions and best practices in mind, the committee members each drafted a mission statement. These statements were then combined and refined through several draft stages. Ultimately, the committee landed on the following statement as a draft proposal for Staff Council to Consider: Staff Council Mission Statement Our mission is to support staff by serving as the primary connection between staff and University leadership, providing a venue to participate in the governance process, and the dissemination of timely information.
9393
Considerations The committee went through several drafts when developing this mission statement. The following items were considered in this process:
1. The committee felt strongly that the statement should be one sentence. This falls in line with best practices, and makes the statement memorable and more impactful.
2. The committee chose the term “primary connection” since Staff Council is the most appropriate way for staff to participate in the governance of the University. Other words considered were “bridge” or “conduit.” The committee decided that bridge was too passive and conduit was too scientific.
3. The committee liked the idea of providing staff with a venue for participation. At first, the committee considered the language of “giving a voice to staff.” This was decided against since staff members have a voice already, but they need a venue to use that voice. The committee also liked the focus on participation as opposed to a venue for staff to voice concerns. Staff Council does much more than complain or voice concerns. The committee felt that the word “participation” more accurately reflects what the governance process looks like.
4. The committee used the word “timely” in the final piece of the statement to emphasize that communication with staff ideally reaches them well in advance of a decision being made. While that has not been the practice always with University leadership, this was an aspirational piece the committee wanted to highlight in the mission statement. Communication has also been a long-standing goal for the Council so the committee wanted to pay homage to that.
Recommendations The committee would like to make the following recommendations:
1. Feedback will be solicited from the Council on the draft mission statement. The committee would then recommend that the draft be updated by the committee and resubmitted to the Council after incorporating feedback.
2. The committee also recommends the development of future committees to draft a vision statement and core values for Staff Council. This will help guide the Council as it continues to establish its presence at UAA.

Staff Council Communications Goal Communications Committee: Marie Williams & Brenda Levesque Friday, September 25, 2015 How can UAA provide better communications to their employees? What is the flow of information within the University? Examine how information is channeled within the University system right now. How can that be improved? Communications is fragmented with different pieces of information coming from different directions and there is no one method for relaying messages. Streamline by having everything come from one place and determine the best way to get the word out? Does all faculty information flow through Governance? What is the flow for Formal Announcements? Announcements from the Chancellor? Do those go through Governance or University Advancement? Chancellor’s webpage includes link to “Case Notes”. The most current one there is dates February 2015. Who manages the University email contact lists? Who manages the Green & Gold or Seawolf Weekly email contact list? Who manages the [email protected], the Anchorage-Community-DL, the [email protected], the UAA-Faculty-Dynamic, the UAA-APT-dyn, the UAA-Classified-dyn (now likely Staff Council) – is this managed by University Advancement, the list for Full Council of Deans & Directors??? Should UAA have a position within University Advancement, University Relations, or in the Chancellor’s office who is responsible for “The UAA Voice” like Monique Musick? Someone who could serve as the conduit of information needed to be shared with all staff. This would include procedural and process changes. Could we meet with the staff of University Relations to find out more about what they do? They have Writer/Public Relations Specialists, Electronic Media Specialist, Communications Specialist/Social Media, Communications Assistant, Art Director, and Graphic Artist. Why couldn’t we use their talents to help us learn ways to better communicate? The July 2015 issue of The Statewide Voice had an article in it about “UAKjobs to be Replaced”. Where was this information to be found for UAA? The Statewide Voice had topics on “clarification” regarding personal holiday days and administrative leave. Where was this information available for UAA?

Clarification on personal holiday days The extension of the personal holiday to exempt employees, and giving an additional personal holiday to non-exempt employees, was for FY15 only. We've gone back to the way it was in FY14 and previous years: the equivalent of one personal day off for non-represented non-exempt employees (up to 8 hours) after satisfying their 6 month new hire probationary period.
Clarification on Administrative Leave In November the Voice reported that sick leave was to be used for any university-wide administrative closure days such as for extreme weather conditions. BOR policy has been updated (R04.06.140) and staff are now able to use the Administrative leave option on their time sheet in the case that a chancellor calls for a campus closure.
Administrative Leave may be used instead of sick leave should the chancellor call for a campus closure??? Should this type of information be coming to employees from Human Resources? How is information disseminated within colleges and schools, within departments? How is information shared following Business Services, Enrollment Services, Administrative Services, etc. meetings? How can the University improve communications when process/procedures change? Recommendations to consider:
1. Send out an email to key administrative support contact personnel in all units/departments and ask them how information is shared within their areas? Start with the contact list Marie has and is used for textbook adoptions. Consider the individuals cc on Monica Kane’s emails. Add Business Managers within the College of Health.
2. Send out the minutes of the Staff Council to administrative staff contact list and ask them to send out to all staff within their area – to include Faculty?
3. Review with Governance and University Advancement the role they have in University communications. (Marie to research.)
4. What is Pamela Cravez, Chancellor’s office, Communications Director’s role? 5. Meet with University Relations (see above). 6. Research questions above.
NOTE: Does all staff and faculty use UAOnline? Could we use that venue for a link to Staff Council? Could we use that area for all employees to provide procedure/process improvements – anonymously, if they want to? An area where all employees could provide suggestions for ways to reduce waste? Ways to save money? Ways to improve University communications?
