HB 2536 changes who serves on three Tennessee insurance committees. It replaces members appointed by organizations (like the Tennessee State Employees Association or Tennessee School Boards Association) with members appointed directly by the commissioner of finance and administration. Specifically, it adds a "preferred service employee" to the state insurance committee, requires school board representatives to be chosen by the commissioner (not the School Boards Association), and has municipal/county employees appointed by the commissioner for local government insurance roles. These changes apply to state employees, school districts, and local governments participating in Tennessee's group insurance programs, effective July 1, 2026.
