INS CD-TOBACCO DEPENDENCE COV

Summary
Amends the Illinois Insurance Code. Creates the Tobacco Dependence Coverage Law. Sets forth a definition for "tobacco use cessation program".

Provides that notice of the availability of coverage shall be delivered to the insured. Provides that an insurer may not deny eligibility or continued eligibility to enroll or renew coverage solely for the purpose of avoiding the requirements of the Law.
