HD 2883 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act providing for prompt health insurance benefits for municipal employees

This bill requires that eligible municipal employees who enroll in the commission's health insurance within their first 10 days of employment receive coverage effective from either their first day of work or their enrollment date, whichever is later. It directly affects municipal employees who join the health insurance plan early in their employment. The key provision changes the effective date of coverage to ensure prompt benefits without delay. The Group Insurance Commission must create implementing regulations within three months of the bill's enactment.
