Illinois Code § 3004

§ 3004.

Solicitations of enrollees. (a) Solicitations of enrollees by a limited health service organization authorized under this Act, or its representatives shall not be construed to be violative of any provisions of law relating to solicitation or advertising by health professionals. Nothing in this Section precludes a limited health service organization from providing to a particular potential enrollee the names of health providers. No limited health service organization, or representative thereof, may cause or knowingly permit the use of advertising which is untrue or misleading, solicitation which is untrue or misleading or any form of evidence of coverage which is deceptive. Limited health service organizations shall be subject to Section 143c or the Illinois Insurance Code as now or hereafter amended. (b) If the Director finds that any advertisement of a plan has materially failed to comply with the provisions of this Act or the rules hereunder, the Director may, by order, require the plan to publish in the same or similar medium, an approved correction or retraction of any untrue, misleading or deceptive statement contained in the advertising and may prohibit such plan from publishing, distributing or allowing to be published or distributed on its behalf such advertisement or any new materially revised advertisement without first having filed a copy thereof with the Director 30 days prior to the publication or distribution thereof, or any shorter period specified in such order. An order issued under this Section shall be effective for 12 months from its issuance and may be renewed by order if the advertisements submitted under this Section indicate difficulties of voluntary compliance with the applicable provisions of this Act and the rules hereunder.
