Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.
(820 ILCS 320/3)
Sec. 3. Definition. For the purposes of this Act, the term "firefighter"
includes, without limitation, a licensed emergency medical technician (EMT) who
is a sworn member of a public fire department, a paramedic employed by a unit of local government, or an EMT, emergency medical technician-intermediate (EMT-I), or advanced emergency medical technician (A-EMT) employed by a unit of local government.
For the purposes of this Act, the term "health insurance plan" is limited to the insurance plan options that are codified in the employee's collective bargaining agreement. If the collective bargaining agreement is silent on plan options, the available plans for the employee shall be negotiated with the authorized representative and subject to the grievance process.
