Summary

Existing law establishes various programs to prevent disease and promote health. Existing federal law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) , provides for the establishment, by July 1, 2014, of a 10-state wellness program demonstration project to promote health and prevent disease. This bill would require the Secretary of California Health and Human Services to apply to the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services to allow California to be a participating pilot state in the wellness program demonstration project in accordance with federal law. The bill would also require the Secretary of California Health and Human Services to petition the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services to change federal regulations to allow an employer in California to offer employees rewards of up to 50% of the cost of health care coverage for participating in a wellness program that meets all of the requirements of PPACA.
