Bill > H3191

This bill proposes to amend Section 1-11-720 of the South Carolina Code of Laws to expand the list of entities whose employees and retirees are eligible for state health and dental insurance plans by specifically adding school board members. Currently, the law provides health and dental insurance options for various public employees and retirees, and this amendment would extend those benefits to individuals serving on school boards. The change means that school board members would now be able to access the same state-provided health and dental insurance plans as other public sector employees. The bill is relatively straightforward, simply adding "(32) a school board member" to the existing list of eligible groups. The legislation would take effect immediately upon receiving approval from the Governor, potentially providing a new benefit to local school board members across South Carolina.
