Election by employees and officers of Alabama Sports Hall of Fame Board to receive coverage.

(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 36-29-1, an employee or executive officer of the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame Board and his or her dependents shall be eligible for coverage under the State Employees' Health Insurance Plan and upon the expiration of the employment may continue the coverage for a maximum of 36 months.

(b) Preexisting conditions shall not be covered until the insured has been covered under the plan for a period of 12 months.

A preexisting condition is a condition for which the insured or their covered dependent received medical treatment, advice, or consultation, or received a prescribed medication within 12 months of the effective date of the insured's coverage under the plan.

(c) The premiums for the insurance coverage for employees, executive officers, and their dependents shall be paid pursuant to Section 36-29-7. For those purposes, the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame shall be the employer.
