HF 716: Relating to health care coverage of certain nonstate public employees and officials under the state health insurance plan, and including effective date provisions

What it does

This bill allows employees and elected officials of a nonstate public employer who actively contribute to the Iowa public employees’ retirement system to apply for coverage and enroll in a state health or medical group insurance plan provided to state employees by the department of administrative services (DAS). Premium payments for coverage received through a state plan must be the same as for state employees, including any premiums paid by state employees. Each employer who participates in a state health or medical group insurance plan must pay monthly premium amounts for coverage to DAS, plus administrative fees calculated on a per-month basis per employee or elected official.
