CalPERS has set the Minimum Employer Contribution amount for 2022 at $149.00 per month. The Minimum Employer Contribution amount is prescribed by Government Code Section 22892 of the Public Employees’ Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA). The City of Roseville contracts with CalPERS to pay the PEMHCA minimum health premium contribution for participating active employees and eligible retirees. The set amount is annually adjusted and must be paid by the employer to CalPERS directly.
What does this mean for eligible retirees? The $149.00 is included in the maximum amount the City contributes each month towards medical insurance premiums. For example, if your medical plan costs $900 then the City will send the PEMHCA minimum amount to CalPERS where it is applied towards the $900. The remaining amount (900-PEMCHA minimum) is reimbursed to the retiree.
