This Amendment shifts the transparency and procedural protections that are in House Amendment No. 3 to this Act to those under House Bill No. 282 (152nd), which in tandem with Senate Amendment No. 1 to HB 282, ensure public comment is held before, not after, a vote by the State Employee Benefits Committee relating to the selection of a Medicare Advantage plan (plan), if offered to eligible pensioners who were first employed on or after January 1, 2025, rather than requiring that the plan be selected and adopted as a regulation under the Administrative Procedures Act.
This Amendment also changes the term "hired" to "employed" to correspond with other sections in Chapter 52 of Title 29.
