Employee Health Contributions
While the state covers most of the cost of employee health coverage, employees also make monthly salary-based contributions. Employees who retire, accept a voluntary salary reduction, or return to State employment at a different salary may have their monthly contribution adjusted based upon the new salary (this applies to employees who return to work after having a 10-day or greater break in State service after terminating employment – this does not apply to employees who have a break in coverage due to a leave of absence). Employees who reside in Illinois but do not have access to a managed care plan may be eligible for a lower health plan contribution. Contact the CMS Group Insurance Division, Analysis and Resolution Unit at (800) 442-1300 or (217) 558-4671.

Dependent Monthly Health Contributions
Monthly dependent contributions are in addition to employee health contributions. Dependents must be enrolled in the same plan as the Member. Medicare dependent contributions apply only if Medicare is PRIMARY for both Parts A and B. Members with questions regarding Medicare status may contact the CMS Group Insurance Division, Medicare Coordination of Benefits (COB) Unit at (800) 442-1300 or (217) 782-7007.
