Bill > H2980

This bill modifies Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 32, which governs retirement benefits, by expanding the classification of certain nursing positions within county correctional facilities for retirement purposes. Specifically, the bill adds registered nurses, medication-assisted treatment nurse managers, psychiatric nurses, psychology nurse practitioners, directors of nursing, licensed practical nurses, nurse practitioners, and paramedics to the list of positions that can be considered within a specific retirement group. The legislation ensures that these healthcare professionals working in county correctional settings are explicitly included in retirement benefit classifications, potentially providing them with more clarity and potentially more favorable retirement benefits. By specifying these roles and adding the phrase "except any position explicitly classified in another group," the bill aims to provide a more precise definition of nursing positions eligible for retirement benefits within the county correctional system.
