 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 1090

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 January 8, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. RAMOS -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Civil Service and Pensions

 AN ACT to amend the civil service law, in relation to requiring dental
 insurance coverage to be offered to employees that is effective imme-
 diately upon the starting date of employment

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Subdivision 2 of section 160 of the civil service law, as
 2 amended by chapter 414 of the laws of 1980, is amended to read as
 3 follows:
 4 2. The president, in [his] the president's discretion, is hereby
 5 empowered to make, amend and rescind, from time to time, regulations
 6 establishing a dental insurance plan which shall be a part of the health
 7 insurance plan authorized by this article. Such regulations may provide
 8 for negotiating unit, employee and employer participation or nonpartic-
 9 ipation, employee, dependent and retiree eligibility or noneligibility
 10 and such contribution rates as the president may determine even though
 11 such regulations establish standards which differ from those applicable
 12 by law to other parts of such health insurance plan; provided, however,
 13 that such regulations shall require employers to offer dental insurance
 14 coverage which is effective immediately upon the starting date of
 15 employment. The president is hereby authorized and directed to provide
 16 in such regulations for participation in the dental insurance plan by
 17 retirees; provided, however, that the claims experience for retirees
 18 shall be separately rated and premiums established separate from other
 19 participants in the plan and provided further that the full costs of
 20 participation in such plan, including all administrative costs, shall be
 21 borne by such retirees. Considering the dental insurance plan as a
 22 whole, no regulation enacted pursuant to this subdivision shall provide
 23 or permit a benefit structure inconsistent with the most efficient and
 24 economical administration of such plan.
 25 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
