   the  maximum  income  level  for  eligibility  to  200% of the federal

   funds  and  General  Revenue  Fund  appropriations.  Provides that, in      
   addition to being eligible for the Program as a result of a waiver  of      
   federal   requirements,   a  person  may  be  eligible  under  federal      
   requirements for  federal  financial  participation.   Provides  that,      
   subject  to  appropriation, the Department of Public Aid shall include      
   coverage for the adult caretakers of the children eligible under  this      
   Act,  to the extent federal financial participation is available under      
   federal law or waivers of federal law. Amends the Illinois Public  Aid      
   Code  to  require  the Department of Public Aid to appoint an advisory      
   committee to evaluate the  administration  of  the  Children's  Health      
   Insurance  Program  Act.   Requires the advisory committee to make its      
   recommendations and report to the Governor  and  General  Assembly  by      
   January 1, 2002 and each January 1 thereafter.  Effective immediately.

        Deletes everything.  Creates the Family Health Insurance  Program      
   Act   and   amends  the  Illinois  Health  Insurance  Portability  and      
   Accountability Act and the Children's Health  Insurance  Program  Act.      
   Creates  a  Family Health Insurance Program, to be administered by the      
   Department of Public Aid.   Provides  for  health  care  coverage  for      
   certain  low-income  families,  either  by  subsidizing the cost of an      
   employer-provided benefits plan or by providing health  care  services      
   upon  the  payment of specified premiums and copayments.  Requires the      
   Department to apply for necessary federal waivers,  but  requires  the      
   Department  to  implement the program (subject to appropriations) even      
   if some or all of the waiver requests are denied.  Requires  that  the      
   program  be  operational  by January 1, 2002 at the earliest.  Repeals      
   the Family Health  Insurance  Program  Act  on  June  30,  2007.  Adds      
   coverage  under the Family Health Insurance Program Act to the list of      
   "creditable coverages" under the Illinois Health Insurance Portability      
   and Accountability  Act.   As  a  condition  of  eligibility  for  the      
   Children's  Health  Insurance  Program, provides for an upper limit of      
   income eligibility at 200% (rather than 185%) of the  federal  poverty      
   level, in connection with efforts to obtain federal matching funding.

        Deletes everything.  Creates the Family Health Insurance  Program      
   Act   and   amends  the  Illinois  Health  Insurance  Portability  and      
   Accountability Act and the Children's Health  Insurance  Program  Act,      
   with  provisions substantially similar to those House Amendment No. 1.      
   Creates a Family Health Insurance Program, to be administered  by  the      
   Department  of  Public  Aid.    Provides  for health care coverage for      
   certain low-income families, either by  subsidizing  the  cost  of  an      
   employer-provided  benefits  plan or by providing health care services      
   upon the payment of specified premiums and copayments.   Requires  the      
   Department  to  apply  for necessary federal waivers, but requires the      
   Department to implement the program (subject to  appropriations)  even      
   if  some  or all of the waiver requests are denied.  Requires that the      
   program be operational  by  January  1,  2002  at  the  earliest,  and      
   authorizes  the  Department  to delay implementation of any portion of      
   the program as to which federal matching funds are not  yet  approved.      
   Repeals the Family Health Insurance Program Act on June 30, 2007. Adds      
   coverage  under the Family Health Insurance Program Act to the list of

   Children's  Health  Insurance  Program, provides for an upper limit of      
   income eligibility at 200% (rather than 185%) of the  federal  poverty
