Bill Summary
This bill expands eligibility under the State's group health plan to employees and members of the Maine Association for the Education of Young Children.
AI Summary
This bill expands eligibility for the State of Maine's group health plan by adding a new category of participants: employees and members of the Maine Association for the Education of Young Children (MAEYC). Currently, the state's health plan covers various groups such as employees of approved academies and retired law enforcement officers or firefighters. The bill amends existing statutory language in Title 5, Section 285, specifically by adding a new paragraph (N) that explicitly includes MAEYC employees and members as eligible participants in the state's group health plan. This change means that individuals working for or belonging to this early childhood education organization will now have the option to participate in the state's group health insurance program, potentially providing them with more affordable and accessible healthcare coverage.
