The Early Allergy Bill
Illinois bill would cover early allergy supplements for families
INS CD-EGG & PEANUT ALLERGY
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, health insurers would pay for early egg and peanut allergy supplements at no extra cost after you meet your deductible.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Families with babies at risk of allergies could get needed supplements without paying extra, but insurers may raise premiums later, so it’s important to watch the bill now.
