TO: | Honorable Robert Duncan, Chair, Senate Committee on State Affairs |
FROM: | John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | SB29 by Zaffirini (Relating to the eligibility of certain postdoctoral fellows and graduate students to participate in health benefit programs at public institutions of higher education.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted |
The bill would make certain fellows eligible to participate in group health insurance programs at public institutions of higher education. While the provisions of the bill would require the fellows pay all the coverage costs, presumably including monthly premiums, it would also authorize institutions to contribute toward the eligible fellows' coverage costs from funds other than General Revenue.
