AI Summary

This bill: - Expands the definition of "covered individual" to include firefighters, part-time firefighters, and volunteer firefighters who meet certain coverage requirements. - Requires employers to provide minimum benefits for covered individuals who experience a heart and circulatory malfunction, including lump-sum payments, weekly payments for hospitalization, and payments for disabilities and disfigurement. - Creates a firefighter benefits cash fund to reimburse employers for the direct costs of providing the required benefits. - Requires employers to participate in a multiple employer health trust in order to provide a firefighter cancer benefits program, and provides that participation becomes optional if the funding is insufficient. - Establishes the "Hugh McKean Act" to create a public safety cardiac screening trust that will provide cardiovascular and other health screenings for peace officers, funded through state appropriations.
