Sec. 10-4-2.2.
Post-parturition care.
If a municipality,
including a home rule municipality, is a self-insurer for purposes of providing
health insurance coverage for its employees, the coverage shall include
coverage for the post-parturition care benefits required to be covered by a
policy of accident and health insurance under Section 356s of the
Illinois Insurance Code. The requirement that post-parturition care be covered
as provided in this Section is an exclusive power and function of the State and
is a denial and limitation under Article VII, Section 6, subsection (h) of the
Illinois Constitution. A home rule municipality to which this Section applies
must comply with every provision of this Section.
