A BILL To eliminate the opt-out for nonfederal governmental health plans.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the Closing Health Coverage Gaps for Public Servants Act, aims to eliminate the opt-out option for nonfederal governmental health plans. Specifically, it prohibits new elections for this opt-out provision and prevents the renewal of existing elections that expire 180 days or more after the bill's enactment, with an exception for certain collectively bargained plans with varying agreement lengths. The goal is to ensure that public servants, such as state and local government employees, have access to comprehensive health coverage without the ability to opt-out of these requirements.
