AN ACT relating to group health insurance.

This bill would change state law so that group health insurance premiums cannot be taxed or have a license fee applied to them by local governments. Currently, local governments may charge such fees on insurance companies, and this bill would carve out an exemption specifically for group health coverage. Who it may affect: insurance companies offering group health plans, local governments that collect revenue from insurance-related fees, and employers or workers whose group health coverage costs could be influenced by changes in how those plans are taxed.
