Consistent with the terms and conditions of KRS 61.410 to 61.500, the state agency,
with the approval of the Governor, is hereby authorized to enter into an agreement
with the commissioner for the purpose of extending insurance coverage to
employees with respect to services specified in the agreement which constitute
employment as defined in KRS 61.420. An agreement entered into under this
section may contain provisions relating to coverage, benefits, contributions, effective
date, modification and termination of the agreement, administration and other
appropriate provisions as the state agency and commissioner shall agree upon. Any
agreement, subject to the provisions of the Social Security Act, shall provide in effect
that:
(1) Insurance coverage shall be provided for employees whose services are
described in the agreement, and their dependents and survivors on the same
basis as though the services constituted employment within the meaning of
Title II of the Social Security Act;
(2) The state shall pay to the Secretary of the Treasury, at times prescribed under
the Social Security Act, contributions with respect to wages equal to the sum of
the taxes imposed by sections 3101 and 3111 of the Federal Insurance
Contributions Act if the services covered by the agreement constitute
employment within the meaning of that act;
(3) Insurance coverage will be afforded with respect to services performed after an
effective date specified in the agreement or modification thereof; except that
the effective date shall not be earlier than January 1, 1955, in the case of an
agreement or modification made between January 1, 1955, and January 1,
1958; or earlier than January 1, 1956, in the case of an agreement or
modification made at any time in the years 1958 or 1959; or earlier than the
first day of the year in which the agreement or modification was made, in the
case of an agreement or modification made at any time between January 1,
1960, and July 1, 1962; or earlier than the first day of the fifth year preceding
the year in which the agreement or modification is made, in the case of an
agreement or modification made at any time after July 1, 1962;
(4) Insurance coverage shall be afforded with respect to all services constituting
employment; except that in order for insurance coverage to be afforded with
respect to services performed in the employ of a political subdivision of the
state there must be in existence in regard to those services a plan which meets
the requirements of KRS 61.460;
(5) Subject to the provisions of KRS 61.435, insurance coverage shall be afforded
with respect to all services in positions covered by a retirement system; except
that no agreement shall be effective to afford insurance coverage to any
services performed in positions to which KRS 161.220 to 161.710 are
applicable except for services performed in positions in a state university or
public junior college.
