Amends the Illinois Insurance Code. In addition to prohibiting a policy of accident and health insurance from excluding or limiting a child's coverage solely because the child is adopted or the child does not reside with the insured, prohibits excluding or limiting a child's coverage solely because the child is unmarried and 25 years of age or younger or because the child is unmarried, 30 years of age or younger, and a full-time student at an institution of higher education.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Provides that there is no rulemaking authority under the amendatory Act, but that the Governor may suggest rules by filing them with the General Assembly and requesting that the General Assembly authorize such rulemaking by law, enact the suggested rules into law, or take other appropriate action in the General Assembly's discretion.
