AI Summary

  • Establishes reporting requirements for Public Safety Employee Benefits Act (PSEBA) recipients, who must file forms with their employers disclosing employment status, health insurance coverage, and medical diagnosis information related to their injury qualification.

  • PSEBA recipients must submit completed forms within 60 days of receipt; employers must notify non-compliant recipients and provide 30 additional days to submit, after which recipients become responsible for reimbursing employers for premiums paid during non-compliance periods.

  • Employers subject to the Act must submit detailed forms to the Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability (COGFA) within 120 days, reporting application numbers, benefits awarded, premium costs, and health insurance benefit descriptions both for current reporting periods and since the Act's inception.

  • COGFA must determine whether PSEBA recipients or their spouses have access to health insurance from current employers or other sources, and must analyze and compare those alternative coverage costs and benefits against employer-provided PSEBA health insurance.

  • COGFA must submit biennial reports to the Governor and General Assembly by June 1, 2014, and January 1 of every even-numbered year thereafter, aggregating all collected data without revealing individual beneficiary identities and making reports publicly available electronically.
