Justification
Governor's Recommendations 2025-26

This increase represents the distribution from Administered Funds for the state's share of premium increases related to
state group health insurance plans.  This distribution is in accordance with Section 8 of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 General
Appropriations Act (Chapter 2024-231, Laws of Florida).

Justification
Governor's Recommendations 2025-26

Distributions made from Administered Funds are not always intended to cover funding for a full fiscal year.  Therefore,
additional funding is required in the subsequent fiscal year to cover the full annual cost of these distributions.  The
annualization covers the portion of the year that was not funded in the prior year.  The state employee health insurance
premium increases are effective December 1, 2024 (for the coverage period beginning January 1, 2025), and this
annualization covers the portion of the year (five months) that was not funded in Fiscal Year 2024-25.

Justification
Governor's Recommendations 2025-26

These estimated expenditures are operating appropriations authorized by the Legislature in the prior year General
Appropriations Act, adjusted for items vetoed by the Governor, appropriations based on contingencies that did not occur,
and appropriations provided in substantive bills that were passed in the 2024 Legislative Session.  Substantive bills are
bills other than the General Appropriations Act.

Justification
Governor's Recommendations 2025-26

Justification
