The Stewart County Board of Commissioners approved a county health insurance renewal with Anthem/BCBSGA at a monthly county cost of $57,914.44 during its June 10, 2025 regular meeting. Chairwoman Arcola Scott moved to approve "Option 1"; Commissioner Tyrone Nelson seconded and all voted in favor.
The board considered health-plan options after a presentation at the June 3 work session by Randy Everett, who reviewed renewal choices for the 2025-2026 plan year. The June 10 motion formalized the county
administration
selection and set the county share of premiums at the stated monthly figure.
The approval was recorded as an administrative matter; the minutes do not specify changes to benefit design, employee contributions, or the insurer's contract terms beyond the vendor name and monthly county cost. The county manager and county staff will implement the renewal under the county's purchasing and benefits procedures. The board took no separate motion at the meeting to modify benefit structure.
