Members of the Londonderry School Board had barely begun their budgeting process last September when they received a jolt. SchoolCare, the organization that provided the district’s health care, said it had underestimated the cost of claims, and Londonderry owed $2.1 million to fill the gap. If the district didn’t pay the surprise fee by January, SchoolCare would begin denying district employees’ insurance claims.
The problem was pervasive. Statewide, SchoolCare faced a $30 million deficit. In total, 65 school districts and 25 municipalities received similar letters with similar fees. And SchoolCare was not the only problem: New Hampshire Interlocal Trust, a risk pool serving 17 school districts, issued $2.5 million in surprise assessments to its members and then entered state receivership.
