Manchester Public Schools is procuring comprehensive accident and athletic insurance coverage for all K‑12 students. The contract requires a single insurer (or consortium) to supply multiple voluntary plans (school‑time, 24‑hour), blanket medical benefits, AD&D, high‑school sports coverage, catastrophic accident insurance, interscholastic sports coverage, optional dental benefits, and class/field‑trip coverage. Rates must be submitted per student for each tier, along with sample policies, enrollment forms, and required certifications (Living‑Wage, insurance certificates, background‑check compliance, etc.). The three‑year contract (1 July 2024‑30 June 2027) was awarded to three Connecticut/Massachusetts insurers. Key points:
• Scope covers accident, medical, AD&D, and ancillary benefits for roughly 6,800 students across pre‑K to high school.
• Vendor must provide Connecticut‑licensed insurance capacity and meet minimum liability limits.
• Living‑Wage Ordinance applies because the anticipated annual premium exceeds $25,000.
• Submission required detailed price tables, certifications, and multiple copies of the proposal.
