SB 6696: Emplyr-sponsored health insr

Providing for a subsidization of certain employer-sponsored health insurance plans.

Summary

  • Finds that many low-wage workers and their families are eligible for, or receive health insurance coverage through, the basic health plan and medical assistance programs. Some of these low-wage workers may work for employers who do not offer health insurance or may have access to employer-sponsored health insurance for themselves and their dependents, but that insurance may be unaffordable for the worker.
