Sec. 3. Any local governmental agency, unless otherwise provided in any statute specifically creating or governing any such agency, may provide for the benefit of its employees, elected or appointed officials and retired former employees life or group life, health, accident, hospital and medical insurance, or any combination of such types of insurance. Such insurance may include provision for employees, elected or appointed officials and former employees who rely on treatment by prayer or spiritual means alone for healing in accordance with the tenets and practice of a well recognized religious denomination. The corporate authority of such agency may provide for payment by such agency of a portion of the premium or charge for such insurance for these persons with these persons paying the balance of such premium charge. However, the portion to be paid by the agency shall not exceed 30% of an elected official's salary from that governmental unit for that premium period, or if paid on a per diem basis, for the previous premium period. There shall be no limit to the portion paid by the agency for full‑time elected officials. For purposes of this Section, a full‑time elected official is one who works 20 hours or more per week. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, there shall be no limit to the portion paid by a township for a trustee of the township. If such corporate authority undertakes a plan whereunder the local governmental agency pays a portion of such premium or charge, the corporate authority of such agency shall provide for the withholding and deducting from the compensation of such persons as consent to joining such plan, the balance of the premium or charge for such insurance.
If the local governmental agency does not provide for a plan pursuant to which such agency pays a portion of the premium or charge for any group insurance plan, the corporate authority of such agency may provide for the withholding and deducting from the compensation of such persons as consent thereto, and the governing authority of any retirement system covering employees or elected or appointed officials of a local governmental agency may provide for the withholding and deducting from retirement benefits of such former persons as consent thereto, the premium or charge for any life or group life, health, accident, hospital and medical insurance.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act, nothing in this Section shall apply to any municipality or county.
