Indiana HB1044 amends insurance coverage for public safety employees, including retirees and those with disabilities.
Indiana HB1044 amends the state's insurance coverage provisions for public safety employees. It ensures that retired public safety employees and those with disabilities are eligible for group health insurance. These employees must file a written request for coverage within 90 days of retirement or the onset of disability benefits. They must also pay the same premiums as active employees. The bill also allows local unit public employers to provide health insurance to surviving spouses and dependents of public safety employees who die in the line of duty.
