Health advisory members get paid per meeting

The law changes pay for Arkansas’s Public School Employee Health Benefit Advisory Commission and State Employee Health Benefit Advisory Commission. Appointed members who are not active employees receive $100 per meeting, rather than per month, plus mileage. The law does not specify a mileage rate. Members get more stipend money in months with multiple meetings, but none in months without meetings.
