HEALTH/ACC INSURANCE: Provides for health insurance coverage for retired employees of district attorneys' offices. (8/1/25)

SB 138 requires health insurance issuers in Louisiana to provide coverage to retired employees of district attorneys' offices who were previously covered under their employer's group plan, as long as they are not yet Medicare-eligible and their office is funded by a local sales tax. It prohibits insurers from denying enrollment or discriminating against retirees compared to active employees regarding coverage. The bill does not force district attorneys' offices to offer coverage to retirees or require better terms than those provided to active staff. It specifically applies to retirees from district attorney offices meeting the outlined eligibility conditions.
