In 1941, the Ohio General Assembly established the Highway Patrol Retirement System (HPRS) for troopers and communications personnel employed by the Highway Patrol. Today, membership in HPRS is limited to troopers with arrest authority and trooper cadets in training at the Highway Patrol Training Academy. The system provides age and service, disability, survivor, and death benefits, as well as health care coverage for benefit recipients and eligible dependents. HPRS receives funds from three sources: 1) employee contributions, 2) employer contributions, and 3) investment returns. These funds are used to pay benefits and expenses of the System. All funds are placed in income-producing investments that follow the guidelines in Ohio Revised Code Chapter 5505. The Retirement Board makes investment decisions on the recommendation of the Chief Investment Officer and outside investment advisors. Each year a detailed financial statement, the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, is prepared for all interested parties. This comprehensive report is based on audited records and contains a detailed listing of all investments. As of August 31, 2018, HPRS had estimated assets of $912 million.
The Green Mountain Care Board, created by the Vermont Legislature in 2011, is working to ensure that our health care system provides quality, affordable health care to all Vermonters while reducing waste and controlling costs. The Legislature assigned the GMCB three main responsibilities: regulation, innovation, and evaluation. The GMCB regulates not only health insurance rates, but also hospital budgets, Accountable Care Organizations, and major capital expenditures. The Board also innovates, testing new ways to pay for and deliver health care as part of its role in building a new system. Finally, the Board evaluates innovation projects, proposals for what benefits should be included in Vermont`s new health system, proposals for funding the new system, and the effect of the new system on Vermont`s economy. Throughout all of the Board`s work, the Board consistently works closely with Vermont health care providers and health care consumers to enhance health system transparency and consumer involvement.
