The bill H. 3191 proposes an amendment to the South Carolina Code of Laws, specifically Section 1-11-720, which pertains to the eligibility of employees and retirees for state health and dental insurance plans. The amendment seeks to include school board members as eligible participants in these insurance plans by adding a new provision that explicitly states, "a school board member" is included among the entities eligible for such benefits.
This change aims to extend health and dental insurance coverage to school board members, recognizing their role and responsibilities within the educational system. The bill will take effect upon approval by the Governor, thereby ensuring that school board members can access the same benefits as other public employees and retirees in the state.
