Legislative audit flags PEIA underfunding by workers
The audit found state and local governments cover 88 to 93 percent of PEIA benefits, a larger share than the national norm, while employees and retirees pay less. It notes inflationary costs shifted to providers and government, with premiums rising slowly from 1989 to 2000 and a $60 million PEIA debt. Robert Ayers defends the board and claims workers aren’t paying enough.
