1 | AN ACT concerning regulation.
| ||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||
4 | Section 5. The Covering ALL KIDS Health Insurance Act is | ||||||
5 | amended by changing Section 25 as follows: | ||||||
6 | (215 ILCS 170/25) | ||||||
7 | (Section scheduled to be repealed on July 1, 2011)
| ||||||
8 | Sec. 25. Enrollment in Program. The Department shall | ||||||
9 | develop procedures to allow application agents to assist in | ||||||
10 | enrolling children in the Program or other children's health | ||||||
11 | programs operated by the Department. At the Department's | ||||||
12 | discretion, technical assistance payments may be made | ||||||
13 | available for approved applications facilitated by an | ||||||
14 | application agent. The Department shall work with physician | ||||||
15 | provider groups to encourage physicians treating uninsured | ||||||
16 | children to advise the children's parents of the availability | ||||||
17 | of the Program's health benefits and of the means of applying | ||||||
18 | for the Program. The Department shall consider methods for | ||||||
19 | including primary care case managers in the enrollment process | ||||||
20 | for the Program.
| ||||||
21 | Notwithstanding any other rulemaking authority that may | ||||||
22 | exist, neither the Governor nor any agency or agency head under | ||||||
23 | the jurisdiction of the Governor has any authority to make or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | promulgate rules to implement or enforce the provisions of this | ||||||
2 | amendatory Act of the 95th General Assembly. If, however, the | ||||||
3 | Governor believes that rules are necessary to implement or | ||||||
4 | enforce the provisions of this amendatory Act of the 95th | ||||||
5 | General Assembly, the Governor may suggest rules to the General | ||||||
6 | Assembly by filing them with the Clerk of the House and the | ||||||
7 | Secretary of the Senate and by requesting that the General | ||||||
8 | Assembly authorize such rulemaking by law, enact those | ||||||
9 | suggested rules into law, or take any other appropriate action | ||||||
10 | in the General Assembly's discretion. Nothing contained in this | ||||||
11 | amendatory Act of the 95th General Assembly shall be | ||||||
12 | interpreted to grant rulemaking authority under any other | ||||||
13 | Illinois statute where such authority is not otherwise | ||||||
14 | explicitly given. For the purposes of this amendatory Act of | ||||||
15 | the 95th General Assembly, "rules" is given the meaning | ||||||
16 | contained in Section 1-70 of the Illinois Administrative | ||||||
17 | Procedure Act, and "agency" and "agency head" are given the | ||||||
18 | meanings contained in Sections 1-20 and 1-25 of the Illinois | ||||||
19 | Administrative Procedure Act to the extent that such | ||||||
20 | definitions apply to agencies or agency heads under the | ||||||
21 | jurisdiction of the Governor. | ||||||
