Latest version.

  •      1. The provisions of this section apply if an overpayment or underpayment of a premium or contribution occurs because of:

         (a) A clerical error by the Program or a participating public agency;

         (b) A change of coverage or a change in the working status of a participating officer or employee; or

         (c) The failure of a participant to give timely notice that a dependent is ineligible for coverage.

         2. If a participating public agency makes an overpayment of premiums or contributions, it may deduct the amount of the overpayment from the payment of premiums or contributions otherwise due for the following month. Any such deduction for a period greater than 1 month must:

         (a) Be approved in advance by the Program; and

         (b) Equal the amount of the overpayment without provision for interest.

         3. The participating public agency shall pay any money due a participant because of an overpayment of premiums or contributions.

         4. If a participating public agency makes an underpayment of premiums or contributions, it must add the amount of the underpayment to the payment of premiums or contributions otherwise due for the following month. Any such additions for a period greater than 1 month must:

         (a) Be approved in advance by the Program; and

         (b) Equal the amount of the underpayment without provision for interest.

         5. Any money owed by a participant because of an underpayment of premiums or contributions must be collected from the participant and paid by the participating public agency.

         6. As used in this section, “overpayment of premiums or contributions” does not include the payment of premiums or contributions for the month in which the employment of a participant terminated, regardless of the date on which the termination occurs.
