SB134

Senate Bill 134 amends the operating requirements for both the Public School Employee Health Benefit Advisory Commission and the State Employee Health Benefit Advisory Commission in Arkansas. The bill reduces the required meeting frequency for both commissions from monthly to quarterly, setting a new annual minimum of four meetings instead of twelve. Additionally, the legislation reduces the monthly stipend for appointed members who are not active state or school employees from $500 to $100. These changes apply equally to both the public school and state employee health benefit advisory bodies.
