Relates to health insurance coverage for surviving spouses or domestic partners of fire protection inspectors of the New York city fire department
This bill expands health insurance benefits for surviving spouses and domestic partners of New York City fire protection inspectors and their supervisors. It allows these family members to enroll in the same health coverage available to retired fire department members if they pay a premium equal to 102% of the group rate within one year of the employee's death. The legislation specifically defines eligible deceased employees to include those who served as emergency medical technicians, fire protection inspectors, or held supervisory roles over these personnel. By amending the city's administrative code, the measure ensures that families of these specific fire department workers can access continued medical support after their loss.
