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 states, "a school board member" is now recognized as an entity eligible for such benefits.
This change aims to extend health and dental insurance coverage to school board members, thereby enhancing their benefits and support as public officials. The bill will take effect upon approval by the Governor, reflecting the state's commitment to providing comprehensive benefits to those serving in educational governance roles.
