Lowering Health Insurance Benefits for School-District Retirees Below Level Afforded Active Employees Violated the Insurance Moratorium Statute

The Fourth Department determined lowering the health insurance benefits for retired school district employees below the level of benefits afforded active employees violated the Insurance Moratorium Statute:

The moratorium statute sets a minimum baseline or “floor” for retiree health benefits, and that “floor” is measured by the health insurance benefits received by active employees … . In other words, the moratorium statute does not permit an employer to whom the statute applies to provide retirees with lesser health insurance benefits than active employees … . Matter of Anderson v Niagara Falls City School Dist, 2015 NY Slip Op 01098, 4th Dept 2-6-15
