Texas HB3594 amends the administration of a retirement health care plan for firefighters and police officers in certain municipalities.

Texas HB3594 amends the administration of a retirement health care plan for firefighters and police officers in certain municipalities. The bill modifies the retiree health plan, allowing a surviving spouse of a deceased retiree to continue eligibility for coverage after remarriage. It also allows a retiree to conditionally waive eligibility for benefits and reinstate eligibility after a divorce. The board of trustees gains exclusive authority to modify the retiree health plan, provided the changes do not increase the fund's total actuarial unfunded liability.
