Section 599.512 - Contributions(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 599.513 and subsection 599.512(e), the employer shall contribute toward the cost of coverage for each enrolled employee, annuitant, and family member, other than for periods during which the enrollment of an employee is continued under the provisions of subsections 599.504(b), (c), (d), (e), (f), or (g), or for a person who is eligible to enroll only on the condition that he or she pay the total cost of his or her coverage, exclusive of contribution made by the employer to the Public Employees' Contingency Reserve Fund in the amount provided by law.(b) The contribution of each enrolled employee and annuitant toward the cost of coverage under the plan in which he or she is enrolled shall be an amount equal to the gross contribution rate established for the plan by contract, less the contribution to be made by the employer under subsection 599.512(a). The gross contribution rate shall consist of the basic contribution rate set forth in the contract. Where enrollment is continued under Section 599.504 and the employer does not contribute under subsection 599.512 (a), the employee shall remit monthly during such continuation the gross contribution rate for his or her coverage under the plan to the carrier on or before the tenth day of the month preceding the month for which the contribution was due, or pursuant to any other arrangement agreed to by the Board. For all other enrollments the gross contribution rate required less the contribution made by the employer under subsection 599.512 (a) shall be withheld from salary or retirement allowance warrants.
For the purposes of application of this subsection to contributions due for enrollment in a prior year, the gross contribution rate and the employer's contribution under subsection 599.512 (a) shall be such a contribution rate for the year for which contribution is due.
(c) Contributions shall commence with the first salary or retirement allowance warrant payable to the employee or annuitant preceding the effective date of enrollment, and shall be made for coverage for a full period of one month. Contributions of the employer shall commence on the effective date of enrollment.(d) Contributions shall terminate with the last contribution made immediately prior to the termination of enrollment.(e) Contributions for an enrolled employee absent because of workers' compensation disability for which he or she has applied for temporary disability compensation, who continues enrollment under Section 599.504, shall be paid as follows: (1) During the period of adjudication of his or her application for compensation and thereafter during such time as he or she receives temporary disability compensation which is not supplemented by sick leave or vacation, or if such supplemental payments are not sufficient to permit the deduction of his or her contribution, the employee shall pay the total cost of coverage as provided under subsection 599.512 (b).(2) Upon establishment of entitlement to temporary disability compensation and his or her election to supplement such compensation with sick leave or vacation, the employee shall be entitled to receive payment of the employer's contribution for the period of adjudication, and deduction of the employee's contributions from payroll and payment of the employer's contributions shall continue thereafter so long as supplemental payments permit deduction of the full contribution of the employee.Cal.
