New health insurance options coming to Illinois?

Posted:

A new nonprofit organization could soon bring some new choices for health insurance in Illinois.

The new nonprofit called Land of Lincoln Health announced it is applying for a state license and has received a $160 million in federal loans to begin operations. The plan would be the first co-op in the state as part of President Obama's health care reform.

The insurance would be offered by 2014.
