HB89

Louisiana HB89 requires the Third Judicial District's district attorney's office to pay health insurance premiums for eligible retired employees.

Louisiana HB89 mandates that the district attorney's office of the Third Judicial District cover the health insurance premiums for retired employees who have at least 24 years of full-time service. The retiree can choose to have the premium paid directly from the district attorney's general fund or by an amount equal to 100% of the premium for a current employee's plan. Once the retiree becomes eligible for Medicare, they must secure Medicare coverage and pursue a supplemental plan, with the district attorney's office continuing to pay the premium for this supplemental plan.
