Premium Cost Sharing. A. The term "premium cost" as used herein shall mean the premium rate that each carrier would charge the Board to provide the benefits specified in 8.2 for each level of coverage if the Board had funded those benefits on a fully-insured basis, giving full credibility to actual experiences. The Board shall provide the Association, upon request, with a written statement from each carrier of the premium rate that each carrier would charge the Board to provide the benefits specified in 8.2 for each level of coverage on a fully-insured basis. B. The Board of Education, Connecticut State Partnership Plan (SPP) 2.0, Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield, AETNA Life Insurance Company, or such other Third Party Administrator (TPA), mutually agreed to by the Board and Association subject to the provisions of Article 8.2 of this Agreement shall make available to the Association all relevant data regarding the costs and performance of the various insurance plans available under this Agreement. Such data shall include, but not be limited to: the master trust agreement, consultant/TPA reports and/or studies, and premium and/or conventional premium equivalent calculations. Utilization information shall be provided including "network and out of network" providers, frequency of claims, costs, use of network providers, and Usual and Customary Rates (UCR). The Board will also provide to the Association upon request access to any other resources such as consultants which in its sole discretion the Board may engage that can validate current or future costs of the insurance benefits provided under this Collective Bargaining Agreement.
