Worker's compensation; require state to continue to provide health insurance for an employee who files a claim for.
HB 10 would have required Mississippi to maintain health insurance coverage under the state and school employees' health plan for state workers who file workers' compensation claims. Specifically, it would have prevented state employees from being removed from the health insurance plan solely because they filed a claim, and mandated that the state continue paying its share of the premium during the workers' compensation benefit period. The bill aimed to ensure continuous health coverage for affected employees without gaps during their claims process. This legislation died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law.
