home rule municipality, is a self-insurer for purposes of providing health
insurance coverage for its employees, the coverage shall include coverage for
the post-mastectomy care benefits required to be covered by a policy of
accident and health insurance under Section 356t and the coverage required

benefits be covered as provided in this is an exclusive power and function of
the State and is a denial and limitation under Article VII, Section 6,
subsection (h) of the Illinois Constitution. A home rule municipality to which
this Section applies must comply with every provision of this Section.
