New health plan rules for remote workers
Beginning November 1, 2025, Oklahoma changes health plan rules for its Remote Quality Jobs Incentive Act. For remote workers listed in a participating organization's application, qualifying plans must limit the employee's premium share to 50%. Employee assistance services alone do not qualify, and the law removes the former list of required coverage areas. The organization must collect proof of each worker's plan and submit it to the Oklahoma Department of Commerce. These are incentive eligibility rules, not a general cap on workers' health insurance costs.
