The Health Insurance Bill
State looks at changing health insurance premiums for public workers
Relative to Group Health Insurance Commission
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
The bill would change how much employees of the Commonwealth pay each month for their group health insurance.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
If passed, public employees might pay more or less each month for health coverage, and the state could move part of the cost onto workers or the budget.
