Amends the Illinois Insurance Code. Sets forth legislative findings concerning phototherapy treatment for psoriasis. Provides that with regard to an insured who is prescribed phototherapy treatment for psoriasis from a physician, a physician may determine whether, in the physician's opinion, the failure of a patient to undergo the prescribed course of phototherapy treatment would increase the likelihood that the patient will need to be shifted to a more costly course of treatment and that insurance plans may seek physician certification that such factor exists. Provides that in cases where the physician has made such a determination, no group or individual health insurer shall (i) charge a copayment for a prescribed course of phototherapy treatment that exceeds 50% of the first phototherapy treatment or (ii) charge copayments for additional phototherapy treatments performed under the same course of treatment. 12/28/2010HousePrefiled with Clerk by Rep.
