AI Summary
This bill amends the Insurance Code to provide a one-time opportunity for certain retirees who previously voluntarily terminated their enrollment in the Texas Public School Employees Group Insurance Program to reenroll in a health benefit plan offered under the program.

The Teacher Retirement System of Texas is required to adopt rules to implement this provision by November 1, 2021.
