Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

215 ILCS 125/4-9.1

    (215 ILCS 125/4-9.1) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1409.2-1)
    Sec. 4-9.1. Dependent Coverage Termination.
    (a) The attainment of a limiting age under a group contract or evidence of coverage which provides that coverage of a dependent person of an enrollee shall terminate upon attainment of the limiting age for dependent persons does not operate to terminate the coverage of a person who, because of a disabling condition that occurred before attainment of the limiting age, is incapable of self-sustaining employment and is dependent on his or her parents or other care providers for lifetime care and supervision.
    (b) For purposes of subsection (a), "dependent on other care providers" is defined as requiring a Community Integrated Living Arrangement, group home, supervised apartment, or other residential services licensed or certified by the Department of Human Services (as successor to the Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities), the Department of Public Health, or the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (formerly Department of Public Aid).
    (c) Proof of such incapacity and dependency shall be furnished to the health maintenance organization by the enrollee within 31 days of a request for the information by the health maintenance organization and subsequently as may be required by the health maintenance organization, but not more frequently than annually. In the absence of proof submitted within 31 days of such inquiry that such dependent is a person who has a disability and is a dependent, the health maintenance organization may terminate coverage of such person at or after attainment of the limiting age. In the absence of such inquiry, coverage of any person who has a disability and is a dependent shall continue through the term of the group contract or evidence of coverage or any extension or renewal thereof.
