Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Public Employee Disability Act. Provides that, for purposes of provisions in the Act concerning disability benefits, "eligible employee" includes any part-time or full-time county correctional officer or any other full-time or part-time employee of a county sheriff. Provides that, when an eligible employee suffers an injury in the line of duty that causes the employee to be unable to perform the employee's duties, the employing public entity shall continue to provide health insurance benefits on the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to the injury.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
In provisions concerning disability benefits for injury, provides that, during the period in which the employee continues to be paid, the employing public entity shall also continue to provide the same options for health insurance benefits (rather than continue to provide health insurance benefits) to the employee and, if applicable, to the employee's eligible dependents at the same benefit level (rather than on the same terms and conditions) as in effect immediately before the injury, and the employee shall pay no greater premium contribution rate than that which the employee was paying before the injury. Limits interpretation of certain provisions to protect an employee's right to select health insurance coverage pursuant to the terms of an employee benefit plan or collective bargaining agreement.
