Health insurance coverage continuation for peace officers and firefighters disabled in the line of duty

Summary

The bill amends Minnesota law so that when a peace officer or firefighter is found eligible for a duty‑disability benefit, the employer must continue paying its share of group health insurance for the employee and, if applicable, their dependents. Coverage continues until the employee turns 65 (or would have turned 65 if deceased) or for a set period for non‑total disabilities. The measure also sets a process for requesting and contesting the coverage determination.
