978.12 (6) (a) District attorneys and state employes of the office of district attorney shall be included within all insurance benefit plans under ch. 40, except as authorized in this subsection paragraph. Alternatively, the state shall provide insurance benefit plans for district attorneys and state employes in the office of district attorney in the manner provided in this subsection paragraph. A district attorney or other employe of the office of district attorney who was employed in that office as a county employe on December 31, 1989, and who received any form of fringe benefits other than a retirement, deferred compensation or employe-funded reimbursement account plan as a county employe, as defined by that county pursuant to the county's personnel policies, or pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement in effect on January 1, 1990, or the most recent collective bargaining agreement covering represented employes who are not covered by such an agreement, may elect to continue to be covered under all such fringe benefit plans provided by the county after becoming a state employe. In a county having a population of 500,000 or more, the fringe benefit plans shall include health insurance benefits fully paid by the county for each retired employe who, on or after December 31, 1989, attains at least 15 years of service in the office of district attorney of that county, whether or not the service is as a county employe, for the duration of the employe's life. An employe may make an election under this subsection paragraph no later than January 31, 1990, except that an employe who serves as an assistant district attorney in a county having a population of 500,000 or more may make an election under this subsection paragraph no later than March 1, 1990. An election under this subsection paragraph shall be for the duration of the employe's employment in the office of district attorney for the same county by which the employe was employed or until the employe terminates the election under this subsection paragraph, at the same cost to the county as the county incurs for a similarly situated county employe. If Subject to par. (b), if the employer's cost for such fringe benefits for any such employe is less than or equal to the cost for comparable coverage under ch. 40, if any, the state shall reimburse the county for that cost. If Subject to par. (b), if the employer's cost for such fringe benefits for any such employe is greater than the cost for comparable coverage under ch. 40, the state shall reimburse the county for the cost of comparable coverage under ch. 40 and the county shall pay the remainder of the cost. The cost of comparable coverage under ch. 40 shall equal the average cost of comparable coverage under ch. 40 for employes in the office of the state public defender, as contained in budget determinations approved by the joint committee on finance or the legislature under the biennial budget act for the period during which the costs are incurred. An employe who makes the election under this subsection paragraph may terminate that election, and shall then be included within all insurance benefit plans under ch. 40, except that the department of employe trust funds may require prior written notice, not exceeding one year's duration, of an employe's intent to be included under any insurance benefit plan under ch. 40.
