May these same blessings come upon us that we serve You worthily through our service of the people of this State.

(2) "High deductible health plan", a policy or contract of health insurance or health care plan that meets the criteria established in 26 U.S.C. Section 223(c)(2), as amended, and any regulations promulgated thereunder.

2. Beginning with the open enrollment period for the 2008 plan year, the board shall offer to all qualified employees the option of receiving health care coverage through a high deductible health plan and the establishment of a health savings account. In order for a qualified individual to obtain a high deductible health plan through the Missouri consolidated health care plan, such individual shall present evidence, in a manner prescribed by regulation, to the board that he or she has established a health savings account in compliance with 26 U.S.C. Section 223, and any amendments and regulations promulgated thereto.

3. The board is authorized to promulgate rules and regulations for the administration and implementation of this section. Any rule or portion of a rule, as that term is defined in section 536.010, RSMo, that is created under the authority delegated in this section shall become effective only if it complies with and is subject to all of the provisions of chapter 536, RSMo, and, if applicable, section 536.028, RSMo. This section and chapter 536, RSMo, are nonseverable and if any of the powers vested with the general assembly pursuant to chapter 536, RSMo, to review, to delay the effective date, or to disapprove and annul a rule are subsequently held unconstitutional, then the grant of rulemaking authority and any rule proposed or adopted after August 28, 2007, shall be invalid and void.

4. The board shall issue a request for proposals from insurance carriers interested in offering a high deductible health plan in connection with a health savings account."; and
