HB 2746 Oklahoma House · 2025 Regular Session

Revenue and Taxation; Remote Quality Jobs Incentive Act; eligibility requirements for basic health benefits plans; effective date.

HB 2746 amends the Oklahoma Remote Quality Jobs Incentive Act, which offers incentives for attracting remote workers to the state. The bill modifies the eligibility requirements for "basic health benefits plans" that remote workers must possess for their employment to qualify. Specifically, it removes the previous list of required coverage areas like hospital or mental health care. The updated definition primarily mandates that employees pay no more than fifty percent of the premium, and clarifies that Employee Assistance Plans (EAPs) do not meet this requirement. This act will take effect on November 1, 2025.
