Health premium help for retired district attorneys

The law provides health premium help for retired district attorneys and assistant district attorneys in the Third and Thirtieth Judicial Districts. They must retire on or after the law’s effective date with at least 24 years of full-time service, regardless of age. Service means years credited in the District Attorneys’ Retirement System as an assistant or elected district attorney. Retirees choose full group health premium payment from their district attorney’s general fund or payment equal to 100% of a current office employee’s premium. When eligible for Medicare by age or condition, retirees must enroll and pursue a supplemental plan. The office continues paying their current health insurance premium or the premium for a supplemental plan comparable to their current coverage.
