Sacramento-Area Public Agency Workers To See Higher-Than-Average HMO Premium Hikes
Public agency workers in the Sacramento area will see an average HMO premium hike of 12.2% in 2016, significantly higher than the 7.21% premium increase approved statewide. CalPERS negotiates one statewide premium rate for state workers, but public agency rates are determined by region.
