After the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1992,
no group policy of accident and health insurance that provides coverage for
the treatment of alcoholism or other drug abuse or dependency on both an
inpatient and outpatient basis may be issued, delivered or amended in this
State if it excludes from coverage services provided by persons or entities
licensed by the Department of Human Services to provide
substance use disorder treatment, provided however that (a)
the charges are otherwise eligible for reimbursement under the policy and
(b) the services provided are medically necessary and within the scope of
the licensure of the provider. This Section shall not apply to
arrangements, agreements or policies authorized under the Health Care
