House Amendment 002

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Income Tax Act. Provides that, for tax years ending on or after December 31, 2022, all individual income tax returns shall contain an appropriate space in which the taxpayer may indicate that the taxpayer would like to know the taxpayer's eligibility for health insurance benefits and authorize the Department of Revenue to share the taxpayer's income information with the State health benefits exchange. Provides that, by June 1 and October 1 of each year, the Department of Healthcare and Family Services and the Department of Insurance shall provide the Department of Revenue with a form letter describing health insurance enrollment options for taxpayers. Provides that the form letter is not required in any calendar year if the State health benefits exchange is operational as of January 1 of that calendar year. Provides that the Department of Revenue shall send the form letter via e-mail or first class mail to the taxpayers who indicated on their most recent individual income tax return that they would like to know their eligibility for health insurance benefits. Provides that the marketplace enrollment platform must interface with the Department's tax system if the State transitions to a State health benefits exchange. Provides that the Director of Revenue shall make individual income tax information available to the State health benefits exchange if the disclosure is authorized by the taxpayer. Provides that the State health benefits exchange shall use the information provided by the Department to assess the individual taxpayer's eligibility for Medicaid and health insurance premium tax credits. Provides that the State health benefits exchange shall inform the taxpayer of the results of its eligibility assessment. Effective immediately.
