Can I elect to opt out of State of Illinois Health Insurance and become a dependent of my spouse who has State insurance (or vice versa)?
No, the Group Insurance Act prohibits enrollment of State members as dependents of any plan administered by the State. Therefore, an individual may not enroll as a dependent of his or her spouse in the State of Illinois Group Insurance Program, Local Government Health Plan, Teachers’ Retirement Insurance Program, or College Insurance Program.
