As some provisions of this year’s federal health care overhaul go into effect, Fairfax County is planning for how it will handle the changes.
Industry experts have said the cost of health insurance plans such as the one Fairfax County offers to its employees could increase by 4 percent or more in 2011, said Susan Woodruff, the county’s Human Resources director.
“That’s a cost that we, the employer, and the employees will have to find a way to share,” Woodruff said.
Given the county now budgets more than $68 million per year for its employee insurance needs, even a slight increase could add millions to the total.
