Abstract

Amends the State Employees Group Insurance Act of 1971. Sets forth requirements for programs of group health benefits administered by the Department of Central Management Services for annuitants, retired TRS benefit recipients, or retired community college benefit recipients. Provides that if, on the effective date of the amendatory Act, the Director of Central Management Services has procured fewer than 2 contracts that provide a program of group health benefits for annuitants, retired TRS benefit recipients, or retired community college benefit recipients, then, as soon as possible after the effective date of the amendatory Act, the Director shall procure additional contracts that provide a program of group health benefits so that there are at least 2 contracts that provide a program of group health benefits for the respective beneficiaries. Provides that thereafter, the Director shall ensure that there are at least 2 contracts procured that provide a program of group health benefits for annuitants, retired TRS benefit recipients, and retired community college benefit recipients.
