BILL NUMBER: S6410 SPONSOR: RAMOS TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the insurance law, the workers' compensation law, the volunteer firefighters' benefit law, the volunteer ambulance workers' benefit law, and the general municipal law, in relation to deductibles offered by public group self-insurers PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: The proposed legislation would allow additional public entities to join public group self-insurance groups as a way to lower their costs and better manage their public employee risks, reduce the cost of that coverage by allowing deductible options regulated by the Workers' Compensation Board, rather than the Superintendent of Financial Services, impose additional restrictions on offering those deductible programs and give the Workers' Compensation Board the authority it needs to ensure that if a public group self-insurer group were to become insolvent no injured employee would suffer a loss of or interruption in benefit payments and no other public entity that is a member of the insolvent public group self-insurer would be at risk for those payments.
