Health insurance coverage for peace officers and firefighters disabled in the line of duty continued, and eligibility to receive continued health insurance coverage for which the employer must pay the employer contribution modified.

Summary

The bill changes Minnesota law so that peace officers and firefighters who are disabled on the job can keep their employer’s health coverage, with the employer paying its share of premiums until the employee turns 65. It adds new eligibility rules, a request and review process, and clarifies that the employer must continue coverage for the employee and any dependents who were covered at the time of injury.
