SUMMARY:

Purchase of continued health insurance coverage. Permits the surviving spouse and any dependents of an active or retired local law-enforcement officer, firefighter, etc., whose death occurs as the direct or proximate result of the performance of his duty, to continue to participate in the decedent's health insurance program under the terms and conditions specified in the bill. In order to participate, the decedent and the survivors seeking to continue coverage must have been covered by the health insurance program administered by the Department of Personnel and Training for localities on the date of the decedent's death. The additional terms and conditions for eligibility and coverage under this bill parallel those of a similar program for the survivors of active and retired state employees enacted by Chapter 179 of the 1995 Acts of Assembly.
