(215 ILCS 5/356L) (from Ch. 73, par. 968L)
Sec. 356L.
No policy of accident or health insurance shall include any
provision which shall have the effect of denying coverage to or on behalf
of an insured under such policy on the basis of a failure by the insured to
file a notice of claim within the time period required by the policy,
provided such failure is caused solely by the physical inability or mental
incapacity of the
insured to file such notice of claim because of a period of emergency hospitalization.
