INS CD-MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

Summary
Amends the Illinois Insurance Code. Provides that a group or individual policy of accident and health insurance or managed care plan amended, delivered, issued, or renewed after the effective date of the amendatory Act must provide coverage for medically necessary preventative physical or rehabilitative therapy for insureds diagnosed with multiple sclerosis without any treatment limitation or calendar year maximum as determined by the patient's treating physician. Makes changes to the provision's definition of "preventative physical therapy" to include physical and other rehabilitative therapy.
