SECTION 22870-22889




22870.  (a) The state and each employee or annuitant shall
contribute a portion of the cost of providing the benefit coverage
afforded under the approved health benefit plan in which the employee
or annuitant is enrolled.
   (b) An annuitant is entitled to only one employer contribution. If
more than one annuitant is receiving an allowance as the survivor of
the same employee or annuitant, there shall be only one employer
contribution with respect to all of those annuitants.
   (c) The contribution of each employee and annuitant shall be the
total cost per month of the benefit coverage afforded him or her
under the health benefit plan or plans in which he or she is enrolled
less the portion thereof to be contributed by the employer. The
employer contribution for each employee or annuitant shall commence
on the effective date of enrollment.



22871.  (a) The employer contribution, with respect to each employee
or annuitant who is in the employment of or retired from service
with the state, including an academic position with the California
State University, or is a survivor of that person, shall be adjusted
by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act. Those adjustments shall
be based on the principle that the employer contribution for each
employee or annuitant shall be an amount equal to 100 percent of the
weighted average of the health benefit plan premiums for an employee
or annuitant enrolled for self-alone, during the benefit year to
which the formula is applied, for the four health benefit plans that
had the largest state enrollment, excluding family members, during
the previous benefit year. For each employee or annuitant with
enrolled family members, the employer shall contribute an additional
90 percent of the weighted average of the additional premiums
required for enrollment of those family members, during the benefit
year to which the formula is applied, in the four health benefit
plans that had the largest state enrollment, excluding family
members, during the previous benefit year. Only the enrollment of,
and premiums paid by, state employees and annuitants enrolled in a
basic health benefit plan shall be counted for purposes of
calculating the employer contribution under this section.
   (b) If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the
provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to
Section 3517.5 or Chapter 12 (commencing with Section 3560) of
Division 4 of Title 1, the memorandum of understanding shall be

year to which the formula is applied, for the four basic health
benefit plans that had the largest active state civil service
enrollment, excluding family members, during the previous benefit
year. For each employee with enrolled family members, the employer

board-approved preferred provider plan premium available under this
part, and reimburse the employee for a portion or all of his or her
incurred deductible, coinsurance, and other out-of-pocket
health-related expenses that would otherwise be covered if the
employee and his or her family members were enrolled in a
board-approved health maintenance organization plan. These subsidies
and reimbursements shall be provided as determined by the Department
of Personnel Administration, which may include, but is not limited

Board of Trustees of the California Association of Highway Patrolmen
