Until a final unappealable administrative or judicial determination of PSEBA eligibility has been made, a public safety employee shall be entitled to maintain his/her prior health insurance as a city employee. However, until a final, unappealable determination of PSEBA eligibility has been made, a public safety employee, or his/her representative, shall be responsible for the prompt payment of all health insurance premiums as though the public safety employee was not eligible for PSEBA benefits. Should the public safety employee be found to be eligible for PSEBA benefits by virtue of a final, unappealable administrative or judicial determination, the public safety employee, or his/her representative, shall be promptly reimbursed by the city for any out-of-pocket health insurance premiums paid from the date of the employee's catastrophic, PSEBA-related injury death or the date of the Police Pension Board awarded line-of-duty disability pension.
