State Comptroller's report highlights need for Best Price Insurance Reform
New Jersey State Comptroller Matt Boxer issued a report today which found that New Jersey local government entities could have saved more than $100 million annually by switching to the State Health Benefits Plan. The report examined four local government units, and showed how they could have saved $12.5 million dollars if they had used a competitive process and switched to the State Health Benefits Plan. Don't let your town miss out on million-dollar savings, bring a copy of the Report and a copy of our Best Price Insurance Reform to your next council or school board meeting and ask them to adopt it!
