HJ 68 Montana House · 2025 Regular Session

Interim study of the Montana State Fund's Plan 3 workers' compensation insurance

HJ 68 is a procedural joint resolution requesting an interim study of Montana State Fund's Plan 3 workers' compensation insurance for state employees. The study would examine specific aspects like rates, class codes, discounts, and whether agents receive monetary incentives for selling these policies. It requires the committee to complete the study by September 15, 2026, and report findings to the 70th Legislature. This resolution does not change any laws but aims to review how the insurance program operates. (Note: The bill died in process on May 22, 2025, and did not become law.)
