Makes various changes to SHBP governance and administration.

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill changes how the State Health Benefits Program is managed by restructuring its governing commission to have 13 members. It also eliminates the separate Plan Design Committee and transfers its duties to the main commission, which will now have sole authority over plan design and can set reimbursement rates. If the commission cannot reach a decision on a matter, it will use a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be binding after 60 days.
