AN ACT relating to group health insurance.
HB 644 exempts group health insurance premiums from local government license fees or taxes in Kentucky. This directly affects insurance companies selling group health plans to employers, removing a tax obligation they previously faced on these premiums. The bill amends state law to explicitly exclude group health insurance premiums from local tax calculations under KRS 91A.080, streamlining the process for insurers and potentially lowering costs for businesses offering group health coverage.
