Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

Any purchasing group meeting the criteria established
under the provisions of the federal Liability Risk Retention
Act of 1986 shall be exempt from any law of this State prohibiting
 the creation of risk purchasing of groups for the purchase
of insurance; any countersignature requirements as provided
in this Code; and any prohibition of group purchasing or any
law that would discriminate against a purchasing group
or its members, prohibit a purchasing group from obtaining insurance on a group basis or because the group has not been in existence for a minimum period of time or because any member has not belonged to the group for a minimum period of time, require that a purchasing group must have a minimum number of members, common ownership or affiliation, or certain legal form, or require that a certain percentage of a purchasing group must obtain insurance on a group basis.  In addition, an insurer shall be exempt

or offering to provide, to a purchasing group or its

not afforded to other persons with respect to rates,
policy forms, coverages or other matters.  A purchasing
group shall be subject to all other applicable laws
of this State.
