Committee on Employee Hospital and Medical Benefits
The Committee on Employee Hospital and Medical Benefits (Legislative Oversight Committee) reviews hospital, medical and related care programs and programs of long term care benefits as recommended by the Executive Administrator and Board of Trustees of the State Health Plan.
The Executive Administrator and the Board of Trustees are charged by Chapter 135-38 to provide the Committee with any information or assistance requested by the Committee in performing its duties.
The Committee is charged under the same article to meet not less than once each quarter to review the actions of the Executive Administrator and Board of Trustees. At each meeting, the Executive Administrator reports to the Committee on any administrative and medical policies, which have been issued as rules and regulations, and on any benefit denials, resulting from the policies, which have been appealed to the Board of Trustees.
