820 ILCS 160/2

Any employer who has agreed to make payments to an employee health insurance plan shall notify its employees of any failure to make such payments where such failure shall result in the total loss of insurance coverage so as to provide its employees a reasonable opportunity to replace such coverage at the time the employee health insurance plan terminates. The employer must provide written notification directly to each of its employees who are covered under the plan. Any employer who fails to provide timely notice of a prospective termination of a health insurance plan, which failure results in the deprivation of the opportunity to replace such coverage and which further results in damages to one or more employees arising from the loss of coverage, shall be guilty of a Class B misdemeanor.
