New Jersey Newsroom reports that Governor Corzine has asked the State Health Benefits Commission and the School Employees Health Benefit Commission to enact rules that will disallow school districts from delaying payments on employee health insurance plans. His directive is in response to news that premium costs will increase substantially by January.
Can we have a directive to disallow the State from delaying payments to school districts, especially in light of the “deferral” of state aid last month?
