2.10A.062 Health and welfare benefits.

The county shall contribute each month toward the monthly premium for county group medical and dental insurance coverage, and life insurance coverage for each member of the council and their eligible family members. Participation in and county premium contributions toward the county’s medical and dental insurance plans by councilors and their family members shall be on the same basis as for other county executive management employees, subject to the requirements of the applicable insurance carrier agreement concerning enrollment and eligibility. In the event the amount of the monthly premium charged for the applicable medical or dental plan at the applicable level of plan participation is greater than the county’s contributions, the balance due shall be paid (at the time the premium is due) by the affected councilor by payroll deduction and said councilor shall execute a payroll deduction authorization form for this purpose as a condition precedent to participation in the applicable plan.
