  • C Health Insurance Plans Continue to Deny Critical Treatment, Even As

    C Health Insurance Plans Continue to Deny Critical Treatment, Even As

    Support SB697/HB2595 Health insurance plans continue to deny critical treatment, e ven as Illinoisans face elevated levels of mental health and addiction challenges due to COVID-19, racial inequity, and general social/economic turmoil. 53% of adults report that the 81,000 Americans died of drug 65% increase in suicides 90% of people with a substance COVID-19 pandemic negatively overdoses between June 2019 amongst Black residents in use disorder and 55% of adults impacts their mental health and June 2020, including a Cook County in 2020 with mental illness do not receive (Kaiser Family Foundation) 29.1% increase in Illinois (CDC) (Cook County Government) treatment (NSDUH 2020) THE PROBLEM: The cost of mental health care should not be your life savings. Yet, large inequities still exist in how health plans cover mental health care.1 Many insurers use outdated and discriminatory guidelines to avoid paying for the mental health care and addiction treatment services you are granted under existing federal law. • A recent federal court decision showed how insurers often use flawed criteria/guidelines that are inconsistent with generally accepted standards of care, which are best practices agreed upon by clinical experts.2 • Insurers effectively use these flawed criteria/guidelines as proprietary, “black box” systems to ration or deny coverage formental health and addiction services. • While Illinois requires the use of nonprofit clinical criteria for substance use disorder medical necessity determinations (the “ASAM Criteria”), it has yet to implement this requirement for mental health disorders. THE SOLUTION: In short, you should not be denied mental health care coverage no more than you should be denied coverage for cancer treatment.

    2020 Illinois General Election Results

    2020 Illinois General Election Results DISCLAIMER: All noted races below have not been certified by the Illinois State Board of Elections and are subject to change. With the massive upswing of mail-in-voting this year, it is HIGHLY likely that many races will not be final until all ballots are in. In Illinois, ballots that are post-marked for Election Day have 2 weeks from Election Day to arrive and be counted. As a result, many of the close races noted below could change and we have marked some races as too close to call. The University of Illinois System Office of Governmental Relations will keep you updated as the Illinois State Board of Elections updates these races. Note, the State board of Elections has listed December 4th as its date to certify the vote and publish official results. GRADUATED INCOME TAX AMENDMENT The constitutional amendment allowing the State of Illinois to implement a Graduated Income Tax failed at the ballot box with a vote of roughly 45% in favor and 55% opposed. The constitutional amendment needed a simple majority of all voters in the election to pass it or 60% of people who specifically voted on the amendment. The FY 21 budget negotiated on and passed in May was balanced, in part, on the projected revenues from the new graduated income tax. The consequences of this could be severe for higher education funding, as Gov. Pritzker has noted that there will need to be major cuts to public safety, education and human services in order to close the budget gap.

    The Anatomy of Influence: Government Unions in Illinois

    The anatomy of influence: Government unions in Illinois David Giuliani | Government reform analyst Chris Andriesen | Project manager Illinois Policy Institute TABLE OF CONTENTS Overall union membership Employment and union membership in Illinois 6 Overall employment, public sector vs. private sector 8 Union profiles Illinois Education Association 10 Illinois Federation of Teachers 12 American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31 14 Service Employees International Union 16 Union spending Partisan breakdown 20 Largest beneficiaries 22 99th General Assembly 29 ILLINOISPOLICY.ORG | 3 INTRODUCTION In 24 states, employees of a unionized workplace can decide for themselves whether they want to join and financially support a union. In Wisconsin, this choice is extended to employees of state government. But not in Illinois; almost all government workers – including teachers, police officers and those who serve in state government – are required to pay money to a union to keep their jobs. Because of this, government unions in Illinois have long been powerful in state politics, with the major government unions donating tens of millions of dollars to political campaigns. Since 2002, Illinois’ five major government unions have spent more than $46 million on direct political contributions alone. “The anatomy of influence: Government unions in Illinois” takes a close look at unions’ political spending and the influence afforded to government unions as a result. This analysis offers an unprecedented review of the political donations to the current Illinois General Assembly, as well as top recipients of union political giving since 2002. It also highlights how profitable the business of forced unionization can be for those who run the unions by listing a sampling of the highest-compensated employees for the state’s major government unions: the Illinois Education Association; Illinois Federation of Teachers; American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31; and Service Employees International Union.

    November 18, 2020 Director Theresa Eagleson, HFS Prescott Bloom Building 201 South Second Street Springfield, IL 62763 Dear Director Eagleson: As members of the House Republican Caucus, we are aware that you are working with the Medicaid Working Group to address issues related to healthcare disparities across the State of Illinois. It is also our understanding that you are currently discussing Hospital Transformation funding for the State. As Legislators, we represent areas across the entire State, including central and downstate Illinois. Our districts are challenged with not only access to healthcare but certainly access to hospital care. In many of our districts our constituents travel across several counties to receive hospital care. For our constituents it is not only an issue of specialty care but simply immediate care. We encounter severe medical deserts across the state, but especially in central and downstate Illinois. Poverty knows no boundaries in our state and certainly our districts suffer equally as other areas of the state. The USDA published a research article in May of this year. In that research they found that in 2018, all the extreme poverty counties were in rural America. The health care needs of the rural communities many of us represent can best be protected by ensuring Critical Access Hospitals receive sufficient and equitable access to Hospital Transformation funding. Workers in the agricultural and meat-packing industries, many of whom are Black and Brown, rely on Critical Access Hospitals as their primary source of care. Because access to care strongly correlates to an individual’s income level, we believe that maintaining an income-based formula in allocating Hospital Transformation funding will ensure that the unique health care needs of our constituents are met, while also ensuring an equitable and fair distribution of funding statewide.
