DECATUR - When Cliff Sorrell of Decatur had to go on disability from his job as a laborer, his family's health insurance rocket from $800 every three months to $2,300.

Between his and his wife's income, they might not have the funds for health insurance for their two children, Cody, 7, and Indya, 5.

"It was scary," said Sorrell's wife, Jill. "It was like, what if we get in a car accident? What if one of the kids gets hurt? We had to take it one day at a time."

In the full year that their children were uninsured, the Sorrels were forced to take out loans from their bank to disburse the out-of-pocket expenses of medical bills. However, with little clicks of the computer mouse in January, Cliff Sorrell exposed that his children were eligible for the newest program of health insurance in Illinois.
