Existing law creates the Board of the Public Employees' Benefits Program and requires the Board to establish the Public Employees' Benefits Program to provide a program relating to group life, accident or health insurance for the benefit of state officers and employees and other authorized participants. (NRS 287.041, 287.043) Existing law: (1) authorizes the Executive Officer of the Program to appoint such officers and employees as are necessary for the administration of the Program who serve at the pleasure of the Executive Officer; and (2) requires the Director of the Department of Administration to appoint a Quality Control Officer for the Program who serves at the pleasure of the Director. (NRS 287.0426) Section 1 of this bill eliminates the duty of the Director of the Department of Administration to appoint and define the duties of a Quality Control Officer for the Program who serves at the pleasure of the Director. However, the Executive Officer of the Program has the discretion to appoint an officer to be in charge of quality control who serves at the pleasure of the Executive Officer under the authority of the Executive Officer to appoint necessary officers and employees for the administration of the Program.
