WEST BRANCH — Ogemaw County Commissioners have opted out of a new state public health insurance plan that aims to limit the amount employers contribute to employee health care.

Beverly Scott, chairman of the county’s budget and finance committee, said commissioners voted unanimously to opt out of the plan during the board’s Dec. 22 meeting. She said county employees will continue to contribute 10 percent of their health insurance costs next year.
