[NCASG] Update: NCASG 2020 Benefits Survey

[Hart, Lynn L.]

Good Morning!

The deadline for responding to the NCASG 2020 Benefits Survey is next Wednesday, August 26th, so this note is just a reminder.  Responses have been coming in a little slower than last year, so I am hoping to see a rush over the next few days.  As of this morning, I have received responses from the following twelve states:  CA, DE, IA, ID, MT, NE, ND, NV, OK, SC, UT, WY.

If you are going to need a little more time to respond, please let me know.  It takes some time after the deadline to compile the data, so there is room for flexibility.  Last year we received responses from thirty states (see below).  The more responses we receive, the more valuable the survey report will be for all.

Thanks,

Greetings from North Dakota!

On behalf of the National Compensation Association of State Governments (NCASG), please find attached the NCASG 2020 Benefits Survey, including a response form and an instruction document.  Thirty states participated last year, the same number as the previous year.  Let's see if we can add a few more this year.  All participants will receive a detailed results report.

Please reply to acknowledge receipt and whether your state plans to participate. If so, please identify if you or someone else will be the primary survey contact.

New for 2020.
Other than changing dates and some minor editing of the response form and the instructions, we have made no changes to the survey this year.

Nonetheless, please note that Table 6 (Employer and Employee Contributions to Health Insurance Premiums) was significantly simplified a couple years ago.  On this table please provide data only for the one plan with the largest participation, and indicate whether the plan type is Indemnity, PPO, or HMO.

I have access to every state's 2019 response.  If you do not have a copy of your state's 2019 submission but would like to have one for reference while completing the 2020 survey, please let me know.  Since little has changed in the survey since last year, it should be relatively simple to provide an update with changes to your 2019 submission.  The thirty participants from last year's survey are as follows:

AK
AL
AR
CA
DE
HI
IA
ID
IN
KS
KY
LA
MN
MO
MS
MT
NC
ND
NE
NM
OK
OR
SC
SD
TN
UT
WA
WI
WV
WY

Please submit your NCASG 2020 Benefits Survey responses to me no later than Wednesday, August 26, 2020, so we can distribute results promptly.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via reply email or at my telephone number below.  Leanne Schmidt has agreed to serve as an alternative contact (701-328-4738 or lmschmidt at nd.gov<mailto:lmschmidt at nd.gov>).
All surveys are due Wednesday, August 26, 2020.

Thank you!
