(a)Each nonstate public employer shall pay monthly the amount determined by the Comptroller for coverage of its nonstate public employees or its nonstate public employees and retirees, as appropriate, under the state employee plan. A nonstate public employer may require each nonstate public employee to contribute a portion of the cost of his or her coverage under the plan, subject to any collective bargaining obligation applicable to such nonstate public employer.
(b)The Comptroller shall establish accounting procedures to track claims and premium payments paid by nonstate public employers.
(c)If any payment due by a nonstate public employer under this section is not paid after the date such payment is due, interest to be paid by such nonstate public employer shall be added, retroactive to the date such payment was due, at the prevailing rate of interest as determined by the Comptroller.
(d)If a nonstate public employer fails to make premium payments, the Comptroller may direct the State Treasurer, or any other officer of the state who is the custodian of any moneys made available by grant, allocation or appropriation payable to such nonstate public employer at any time subsequent to such failure, to withhold the payment of such moneys until the amount of the premium or interest due has been paid to the Comptroller, or until the State Treasurer or such custodial officer determines that arrangements have been made, to the satisfaction of the State Treasurer, for the payment of such premium and interest. Such moneys shall not be withheld if such withholding will adversely affect the receipt of any federal grant or aid in connection with such moneys.
