State employees currently must enroll in the state health plan unless they can prove they have other health coverage (like through a spouse's plan or Medicare). This bill removes that requirement, allowing state employees to opt out of the state health plan without needing to show they have alternative coverage.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
