the purchase or rental of, or investment in, property, goods, or
services, but does not include communications:
(1) to any residential subscriber with that subscriber's
prior express invitation or permission when a voluntary 2-way
communication between a person or entity and a residential
subscriber has occurred with or without an exchange of
consideration;
(2) by or on behalf of any person or entity with whom a
residential subscriber has an established business relationship
which has not been terminated in writing by either party and which
is related to the nature of the established business relationship;
(3) by or on behalf of any person or entity with whom a
residential subscriber is an existing customer, unless the customer

that he or she no longer wishes to receive the telemarketing sales
calls of the person or entity, or unless the nature of the call is
unrelated to the established business relationship with the
existing customer;
(4) by or on behalf of an entity organized under Section
501(c)(3), 501(c)(4), or 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code,

services, which cannot be completed, and for which payment or

written or electronic agreement is signed by the residential
subscriber; or
(6) until July 1, 2005, by or on behalf of any entity over

Commerce Commission has regulatory authority to the extent that,
subject to that authority, the entity is required to maintain a
license, permit, or certificate to sell or provide
telecommunications service, as defined in Section 13-203 of the
Public Utilities Act, while the entity is engaged in telephone
solicitation for inter-exchange telecommunications service, as
defined in Section 13-205 of the Public Utilities Act, or local
exchange telecommunications service, as defined in Section 13-204
of the Public Utilities Act.
Section 10. Prohibited calls. Beginning July 1, 2002, no person or

any residential subscriber more than 45 days after the residential
subscriber's telephone number or numbers first appear on the Registry.
Section 15. Complaints. The Illinois Commerce Commission shall
receive telephone solicitation complaints from residential subscribers
to object to such calls. Complaints shall be taken by any means deemed
appropriate by the Illinois Commerce Commission. Complaints against
persons or entities that are licensed, certificated, or permitted by a
State or federal agency shall be forwarded for investigation by the
Illinois Commerce Commission to the appropriate agency if the

may contract with a private vendor to establish and maintain the
Registry if the contract requires the vendor to provide the Registry in
a printed hard copy format, in an electronic format, and in any other
format prescribed by the Illinois Commerce Commission.
(b) No later than January 1, 2002, the Illinois Commerce
Commission shall adopt rules consistent with this Act that the Illinois
Commerce Commission deems necessary and appropriate to fully implement
this Act. The rules shall include, at a minimum, methods by which any
person or entity desiring to make telephone solicitation calls may
obtain access to the Registry to avoid calling the telephone numbers of
residential subscribers included in the Registry.
(c) The fee for obtaining the Registry shall be set forth in rules
adopted by the Illinois Commerce Commission. The fee may not exceed
$500 annually. All copies requested in a printed hard copy format shall
be assessed a per page fee to be determined by rules adopted by the
Illinois Commerce Commission.
(d) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall update the Registry and
make information in the Registry available on a quarterly basis in an
electronic format and, if deemed appropriate by the Illinois Commerce

A message from the Senate by
Mr. Harry, Secretary:
Mr. Speaker -- I am directed to inform the House of Representatives
that the Senate has concurred with the House of Representatives in the
passage of a bill of the following title to-wit:
HOUSE BILL 1900
A bill for AN ACT concerning abortions.
Together with the attached amendment thereto (which amendment has
been printed by the Senate), in the adoption of which I am instructed
to ask the concurrence of the House, to-wit:
Senate Amendment No. 1 to HOUSE BILL NO. 1900.
Passed the Senate, as amended, May 16, 2001.
Jim Harry, Secretary of the Senate
AMENDMENT NO. 1. Amend House Bill 1900 by replacing everything
after the enacting clause with the following:
"AN ACT concerning abortions."; and
by replacing everything after the enacting clause with the following:
"Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Parental
Notice of Abortion Act of 2001.
Section 5. Legislative findings and purpose. The General Assembly
finds that notification of an adult family member as defined in this
Act is in the best interest of an unemancipated minor, and the General
Assembly's purpose in enacting this parental notice law is to further
the important and compelling State interests of protecting the best
interests of an unemancipated minor, fostering the family unit and
preserving it as a viable social unit, protecting the constitutional
rights of parents to rear children who are members of their household,
and preventing the influx of minors entering the State of Illinois to
evade the laws of their home state that require parental notification
or parental consent.
The medical, emotional, and psychological consequences of abortion
are sometimes serious and long-lasting, and immature minors often lack
the ability to make fully informed choices that consider both the
immediate and long-range consequences.
Parental consultation is usually in the best interest of the minor
and is desirable since the capacity to become pregnant and the capacity
for mature judgment concerning the wisdom of an abortion are not
necessarily related. Parents ordinarily possess information essential
to a physician's exercise of his or her best medical judgment
concerning the minor, and parents who are aware their daughter has had
an abortion may better ensure her appropriate medical attention after
her abortion.
Section 10. Definitions. In this Act:
"Abortion" means the use of any instrument, medicine, or drug, or
any other substance or device, to terminate the pregnancy of a woman
known to be pregnant with an intention other than to increase the
probability of a live birth, to preserve the life or health of a child
after live birth, or to remove a dead fetus.
"Actual notice" means the giving of notice directly, in person or
by telephone, and not by facsimile, voice mail, or answering machine
message.
"Adult family member" means a person over 18 years of age who is:
(1) the parent of the minor or incompetent person;
(2) a step-parent married to and residing with the custodial
parent of the minor or incompetent person; or
(3) a legal guardian of the minor or incompetent person.
"Constructive notice" means notice sent by certified mail to the
31 [May 16, 2001]
last known address of the person entitled to notice, with delivery
deemed to have occurred 48 hours after the notice is mailed.
"Incompetent person" means a person who has been adjudged as
mentally ill or developmentally disabled and who, because of her mental
illness or developmental disability, is not fully able to manage her
person and for whom a guardian of the person has been appointed under
subdivision (a)(1) of Section 11a-3 of the Probate Act of 1975.
"Medical emergency" means a condition that, on the basis of a
physician's good faith clinical judgment, so complicates the medical
condition of a pregnant woman as to necessitate the immediate abortion
of her pregnancy to avert her death or for which a delay will create
serious risk of substantial and irreversible impairment of major bodily
function.
"Minor" means any person under 18 years of age who is not or has
not been married or who has not been emancipated under the Emancipation
of Mature Minors Act.
"Neglect" means the failure of an adult family member to supply a
child with necessary food, clothing, shelter, or medical care when
reasonably able to do so or the failure to protect a child from
conditions or actions that imminently and seriously endanger the
child's physical or mental health when reasonably able to do so.
"Physical abuse" means any physical injury intentionally inflicted
by an adult family member on a child.
"Physician" means a person licensed to practice medicine in all its
branches under the Medical Practice Act of 1987.
"Sexual abuse" means any sexual conduct or sexual penetration as
defined in Section 12-12 of the Criminal Code of 1961 that is
prohibited by the criminal laws of the State of Illinois and committed
against a minor by an adult family member as defined in this Act.
Section 15. Notice to adult family member. No person shall
knowingly perform an abortion upon a minor or upon an incompetent
person unless the person or his or her agent has given at least 48
hours actual notice to an adult family member of the pregnant minor or
incompetent person of his or her intention to perform the abortion,
unless that person or his or her agent has received a written statement
by a referring physician certifying that the referring physician or his
or her agent has given at least 48 hours notice to an adult family
member of the pregnant minor or incompetent person. If actual notice
is not possible after a reasonable effort, the person or his or her
agent must give 48 hours constructive notice.
Section 20. Exceptions. Notice is not required under this Act if:
(1) at the time the abortion is performed, the minor or
incompetent person is accompanied by a person entitled to notice
under this Act; or
(2) notice under this Act is waived in writing by a person who
is entitled to that notice; or
(3) the attending physician certifies in the patient's medical
record that a medical emergency exists and there is insufficient
time to provide the required notice; or
(4) the minor declares in writing that she is a victim of
sexual abuse, neglect, or physical abuse by an adult family member
as defined in this Act, in which case (i) the attending physician
must certify in the patient's medical record that he or she has
received the written declaration of abuse or neglect and (ii) any
notification of public authorities of abuse that may be required
under other laws of this State need not be made by the person
performing the abortion until after the minor receives an abortion
that otherwise complies with the requirements of this Act; or
(5) notice under this Act is waived under Section 25.
Section 25. Procedure for judicial waiver of notice.
(a) The requirements and procedures under this Section are
available to minors and incompetent persons whether or not they are
residents of this State.
(b) A minor or incompetent person may petition any circuit court
for a waiver of the parental notice of abortion requirement under this
Act and may participate in proceedings on her own behalf. The court
[May 16, 2001] 32
shall appoint a guardian ad litem for her in any such proceedings. A
guardian ad litem appointed under this Act must act to maintain the
confidentiality of the proceedings. The circuit court shall advise the
minor or incompetent person that she has a right to court-appointed
counsel and shall provide her with counsel upon her request.
(c) Court proceedings under this Section shall be confidential and
must ensure the anonymity of the minor or incompetent person. All
court proceedings under this Section shall be sealed. The minor or
incompetent person has the right to file her petition in the circuit
court using a pseudonym or using solely her initials. All documents
related to the petition shall be confidential and shall not be made
available to the public. These proceedings shall be given precedence
over other pending matters to the extent necessary to ensure that the
court reaches a decision promptly. The court shall rule and issue
written findings of fact and conclusions of law within 48 hours after
the petition is filed, except that the 48-hour limitation may be
extended at the request of the minor or incompetent person. If the
court fails to rule within the 48-hour period and an extension is not
requested, then the petition shall be deemed to have been granted, and
the notice requirement shall be waived.
(d) Notice under this Act shall be waived if the court finds by
clear and convincing evidence either:
(1) that the minor or incompetent person is sufficiently
mature and well-enough informed to decide intelligently whether to
have an abortion; or
(2) that notification under Section 15 of this Act would not
be in the best interests of the minor or incompetent person.
(e) A court that conducts proceedings under this Section shall
issue written and specific factual findings and legal conclusions
supporting its decision and shall order that a confidential record of
the evidence and the judge's findings and conclusions be maintained.
(f) An expedited confidential appeal shall be available to any
minor or incompetent person to whom the circuit court denies a waiver
of notice under this Act. An order authorizing an abortion without
notice is not subject to appeal.
(g) The following rules apply to the appeal of a denial of a
petition for waiver of parental notice of abortion under this Section.
These rules shall remain in effect only until the Illinois Supreme
Court issues its own rules providing for an expedited confidential
appeal of a denial of a petition for waiver of parental notice. If the
rules adopted by the Illinois Supreme Court are declared
unconstitutional, the following rules are thereafter once again in
effect.
(1) Review of the denial of a waiver of parental notice under
this Act shall be by petition filed in the Appellate Court. An
appropriate supporting record must accompany the petition. The
record must include the notice of interlocutory appeal; the
pleadings filed in the circuit court, if any; the decision of the
circuit court, including the specific findings of fact and legal
conclusions supporting the decision; and any supporting documents
of record the petition may offer. The record may be authenticated
by the certificate of the clerk of the trial court or by the
affidavit of an attorney or party filing it.
(2) The minor or incompetent petitioner may file a brief
statement of facts and a short memorandum of law supporting her
petition. These may be filed instead of a brief and abstract and
must be filed within 2 days after the denial of the petition for
waiver of parental notice.
(3) Except by order of the court upon request of the minor or
incompetent petitioner or her guardian ad litem or counsel, no
extension of time may be granted.
(4) After the petitioner has filed the petition, supporting
record, and any memorandum, the Appellate Court shall consider and
decide the petition within 2 days. No oral argument on the
petition may be heard.
(5) The minor or incompetent petitioner may appear and file
33 [May 16, 2001]
her notice of appeal and her petition using only her initials or a
pseudonym. If she does not use her own name, however, she must
provide the Clerk of the Appellate Court with a name, telephone
number, and address where she can be reached to be informed of the
time and place of any hearing and the decision of the court.
(6) The Appellate Court shall appoint counsel to assist the
minor or incompetent petitioner if she so requests.
(7) All Appellate Court records concerning an appeal under
this Section shall be sealed as confidential. Inspection and
copying of any court records relating to the proceeding and the
minor or incompetent person who is the subject of the proceeding
shall not be available to the minor or incompetent person who is
the subject of the proceeding or to her guardian ad litem or
counsel.
(8) Any further appeal to the Illinois Supreme Court may be
taken in a manner similar to that provided in other civil cases.
(h) No fees shall be required of any minor or incompetent person
who avails herself of the procedures provided by this Section.
Section 30. Minor's consent to abortion. A person may not perform
an abortion on a minor without the minor's consent, except in a medical
emergency.
Section 35. Reports. The Department of Public Health must comply
with the reporting requirements set forth in the consent decree in
Herbst v. O'Malley, case no. 84-C-5602 in the U.S. District Court for
the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. These reports
must also include a statement of whether the required notice under
Section 15 of this Act was given and, if an exception to the notice
requirement applies, which exception was used. No patient's name or
any other information that could lead to the identification of the
patient may be used in any report submitted under this Section.
Section 40. Penalties.
(a) A physician who willfully fails to provide notice as required
under this Act before performing an abortion on a minor or an
incompetent person shall be referred to the Illinois State Medical
Disciplinary Board for action in accordance with Section 22 of the
Medical Practice Act of 1987.
(b) A person, not authorized under this Act, who signs any waiver
of notice under this Act for a minor or incompetent person seeking an
abortion is guilty of a Class C misdemeanor.
(c) A person who discloses confidential information in violation of
Section 25 is guilty of a Class C misdemeanor.
Section 45. Immunity. A physician who, in good faith, provides
notice in accordance with Section 15 or relies on an exception under
Section 20 is not subject to any type of civil or criminal liability or
discipline for unprofessional conduct for failure to give notice
required under this Act.
Section 50. Severability. If any provision, word, phrase, or
clause of this Act, or its application to any person or circumstance,
is held invalid, the invalidity of that provision or application does
not affect the provisions, words, phrases, clauses, or applications of
the Act that can be given effect without the invalid provision, word,
phrase, clause, or application, and to this end the provisions, words,
phrases, and clauses of this Act are declared to be severable.
Section 90. The Medical Practice Act of 1987 is amended by

(225 ILCS 60/22) (from Ch. 111, par. 4400-22)

complaint alleging the commission of or notice of the conviction order
for any of the acts described herein. Except for the grounds numbered
37 [May 16, 2001]
(8), (9) and (29), no action shall be commenced more than 5 years after
the date of the incident or act alleged to have violated this Section.
In the event of the settlement of any claim or cause of action in favor
of the claimant or the reduction to final judgment of any civil action
in favor of the plaintiff, such claim, cause of action or civil action
being grounded on the allegation that a person licensed under this Act
was negligent in providing care, the Department shall have an
additional period of one year from the date of notification to the
Department under Section 23 of this Act of such settlement or final
judgment in which to investigate and commence formal disciplinary
proceedings under Section 36 of this Act, except as otherwise provided
by law. The time during which the holder of the license was outside
the State of Illinois shall not be included within any period of time
limiting the commencement of disciplinary action by the Department.
The entry of an order or judgment by any circuit court establishing
that any person holding a license under this Act is a person in need of
mental treatment operates as a suspension of that license. That person
may resume their practice only upon the entry of a Departmental order
based upon a finding by the Medical Disciplinary Board that they have
been determined to be recovered from mental illness by the court and
upon the Disciplinary Board's recommendation that they be permitted to
resume their practice.
The Department may refuse to issue or take disciplinary action
concerning the license of any person who fails to file a return, or to
pay the tax, penalty or interest shown in a filed return, or to pay any
final assessment of tax, penalty or interest, as required by any tax
Act administered by the Illinois Department of Revenue, until such time
as the requirements of any such tax Act are satisfied as determined by
the Illinois Department of Revenue.
The Department, upon the recommendation of the Disciplinary Board,
shall adopt rules which set forth standards to be used in determining:
(a) when a person will be deemed sufficiently rehabilitated
to warrant the public trust;
(b) what constitutes dishonorable, unethical or
unprofessional conduct of a character likely to deceive, defraud,
or harm the public;
(c) what constitutes immoral conduct in the commission of any
act, including, but not limited to, commission of an act of sexual
misconduct related to the licensee's practice; and
(d) what constitutes gross negligence in the practice of
medicine.
However, no such rule shall be admissible into evidence in any
civil action except for review of a licensing or other disciplinary
action under this Act.
In enforcing this Section, the Medical Disciplinary Board, upon a
showing of a possible violation, may compel any individual licensed to
practice under this Act, or who has applied for licensure or a permit
pursuant to this Act, to submit to a mental or physical examination, or
both, as required by and at the expense of the Department. The
examining physician or physicians shall be those specifically
designated by the Disciplinary Board. The Medical Disciplinary Board or
the Department may order the examining physician to present testimony
concerning this mental or physical examination of the licensee or
applicant. No information shall be excluded by reason of any common
law or statutory privilege relating to communication between the
licensee or applicant and the examining physician. The individual to be
examined may have, at his or her own expense, another physician of his
or her choice present during all aspects of the examination. Failure
of any individual to submit to mental or physical examination, when
directed, shall be grounds for suspension of his or her license until
such time as the individual submits to the examination if the
Disciplinary Board finds, after notice and hearing, that the refusal to
submit to the examination was without reasonable cause. If the
Disciplinary Board finds a physician unable to practice because of the
reasons set forth in this Section, the Disciplinary Board shall require
such physician to submit to care, counseling, or treatment by
[May 16, 2001] 38
physicians approved or designated by the Disciplinary Board, as a
condition for continued, reinstated, or renewed licensure to practice.
Any physician, whose license was granted pursuant to Sections 9, 17, or
19 of this Act, or, continued, reinstated, renewed, disciplined or
supervised, subject to such terms, conditions or restrictions who shall
fail to comply with such terms, conditions or restrictions, or to
complete a required program of care, counseling, or treatment, as
determined by the Chief Medical Coordinator or Deputy Medical
Coordinators, shall be referred to the Director for a determination as
to whether the licensee shall have their license suspended immediately,
pending a hearing by the Disciplinary Board. In instances in which the
Director immediately suspends a license under this Section, a hearing
upon such person's license must be convened by the Disciplinary Board
within 15 days after such suspension and completed without appreciable
delay. The Disciplinary Board shall have the authority to review the
subject physician's record of treatment and counseling regarding the
impairment, to the extent permitted by applicable federal statutes and
regulations safeguarding the confidentiality of medical records.
An individual licensed under this Act, affected under this Section,
shall be afforded an opportunity to demonstrate to the Disciplinary
Board that they can resume practice in compliance with acceptable and
prevailing standards under the provisions of their license.
The Department may promulgate rules for the imposition of fines in
disciplinary cases, not to exceed $5,000 for each violation of this
Act. Fines may be imposed in conjunction with other forms of
disciplinary action, but shall not be the exclusive disposition of any
disciplinary action arising out of conduct resulting in death or injury
to a patient. Any funds collected from such fines shall be deposited
in the Medical Disciplinary Fund.
(B) The Department shall revoke the license or visiting permit of
any person issued under this Act to practice medicine or to treat human
ailments without the use of drugs and without operative surgery, who
has been convicted a second time of committing any felony under the
Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or who has been convicted a second
time of committing a Class 1 felony under Sections 8A-3 and 8A-6 of the
Illinois Public Aid Code. A person whose license or visiting permit is
revoked under this subsection B of Section 22 of this Act shall be
prohibited from practicing medicine or treating human ailments without
the use of drugs and without operative surgery.
(C) The Medical Disciplinary Board shall recommend to the

Sec. 23. Reports relating to professional conduct and capacity.
(A) Entities required to report.
(1) Health care institutions. The chief administrator or
executive officer of any health care institution licensed by the
Illinois Department of Public Health shall report to the
Disciplinary Board when any person's clinical privileges are
39 [May 16, 2001]
terminated or are restricted based on a final determination, in
accordance with that institution's by-laws or rules and
regulations, that a person has either committed an act or acts
which may directly threaten patient care, and not of an
administrative nature, or that a person may be mentally or
physically disabled in such a manner as to endanger patients under
that person's care. Such officer also shall report if a person
accepts voluntary termination or restriction of clinical privileges
in lieu of formal action based upon conduct related directly to
patient care and not of an administrative nature, or in lieu of
formal action seeking to determine whether a person may be mentally
or physically disabled in such a manner as to endanger patients
under that person's care. The Medical Disciplinary Board shall, by
rule, provide for the reporting to it of all instances in which a
person, licensed under this Act, who is impaired by reason of age,
drug or alcohol abuse or physical or mental impairment, is under
supervision and, where appropriate, is in a program of
rehabilitation. Such reports shall be strictly confidential and
may be reviewed and considered only by the members of the
Disciplinary Board, or by authorized staff as provided by rules of
the Disciplinary Board. Provisions shall be made for the periodic
report of the status of any such person not less than twice
annually in order that the Disciplinary Board shall have current
information upon which to determine the status of any such person.
Such initial and periodic reports of impaired physicians shall not
be considered records within the meaning of The State Records Act
and shall be disposed of, following a determination by the
Disciplinary Board that such reports are no longer required, in a
manner and at such time as the Disciplinary Board shall determine
by rule. The filing of such reports shall be construed as the
filing of a report for purposes of subsection (C) of this Section.
(2) Professional associations. The President or chief
executive officer of any association or society, of persons
licensed under this Act, operating within this State shall report
to the Disciplinary Board when the association or society renders a
final determination that a person has committed unprofessional
conduct related directly to patient care or that a person may be
mentally or physically disabled in such a manner as to endanger
patients under that person's care.
(3) Professional liability insurers. Every insurance company
which offers policies of professional liability insurance to
persons licensed under this Act, or any other entity which seeks to
indemnify the professional liability of a person licensed under
this Act, shall report to the Disciplinary Board the settlement of
any claim or cause of action, or final judgment rendered in any
cause of action, which alleged negligence in the furnishing of
medical care by such licensed person when such settlement or final
judgment is in favor of the plaintiff.
(4) State's Attorneys. The State's Attorney of each county
shall report to the Disciplinary Board all instances in which a
person licensed under this Act is convicted or otherwise found
guilty of the commission of any felony. The State's Attorney of
each county may report to the Disciplinary Board through a verified
complaint any instance in which the State's Attorney believes that
a physician has willfully violated the notice requirements of the
Parental Notice of Abortion Act of 2001. The State's Attorney of
each county may report to the Disciplinary Board through a verified
complaint any instance in which the State's Attorney believes that
a physician has willfully violated the notice requirements of the
Parental Notice of Abortion Act of 1995.
(5) State agencies. All agencies, boards, commissions,
departments, or other instrumentalities of the government of the
State of Illinois shall report to the Disciplinary Board any
instance arising in connection with the operations of such agency,
including the administration of any law by such agency, in which a
person licensed under this Act has either committed an act or acts
[May 16, 2001] 40
which may be a violation of this Act or which may constitute
unprofessional conduct related directly to patient care or which
indicates that a person licensed under this Act may be mentally or
physically disabled in such a manner as to endanger patients under
that person's care.
(B) Mandatory reporting. All reports required by items (34),
(35), and (36) of subsection (A) of Section 22 and by Section 23 shall
be submitted to the Disciplinary Board in a timely fashion. The
reports shall be filed in writing within 60 days after a determination
that a report is required under this Act. All reports shall contain
the following information:
(1) The name, address and telephone number of the person
making the report.
(2) The name, address and telephone number of the person who
is the subject of the report.
(3) The name or other means of identification of any patient
or patients whose treatment is a subject of the report, provided,
however, no medical records may be revealed without the written
consent of the patient or patients.
(4) A brief description of the facts which gave rise to the
issuance of the report, including the dates of any occurrences
deemed to necessitate the filing of the report.
(5) If court action is involved, the identity of the court in
which the action is filed, along with the docket number and date of
filing of the action.
(6) Any further pertinent information which the reporting
party deems to be an aid in the evaluation of the report.
The Department shall have the right to inform patients of the right
to provide written consent for the Department to obtain copies of
hospital and medical records. The Disciplinary Board or Department may
exercise the power under Section 38 of this Act to subpoena copies of
hospital or medical records in mandatory report cases alleging death or
permanent bodily injury when consent to obtain records is not provided
by a patient or legal representative. Appropriate rules shall be
adopted by the Department with the approval of the Disciplinary Board.
When the Department has received written reports concerning
incidents required to be reported in items (34), (35), and (36) of
subsection (A) of Section 22, the licensee's failure to report the
incident to the Department under those items shall not be the sole
grounds for disciplinary action.
Nothing contained in this Section shall act to in any way, waive or
modify the confidentiality of medical reports and committee reports to
the extent provided by law. Any information reported or disclosed
shall be kept for the confidential use of the Disciplinary Board, the
Medical Coordinators, the Disciplinary Board's attorneys, the medical
investigative staff, and authorized clerical staff, as provided in this
Act, and shall be afforded the same status as is provided information
concerning medical studies in Part 21 of Article VIII of the Code of
Civil Procedure.
(C) Immunity from prosecution. Any individual or organization
acting in good faith, and not in a wilful and wanton manner, in
complying with this Act by providing any report or other information to
the Disciplinary Board, or assisting in the investigation or
preparation of such information, or by participating in proceedings of
the Disciplinary Board, or by serving as a member of the Disciplinary
Board, shall not, as a result of such actions, be subject to criminal
prosecution or civil damages.
(D) Indemnification. Members of the Disciplinary Board, the
Medical Coordinators, the Disciplinary Board's attorneys, the medical
investigative staff, physicians retained under contract to assist and
advise the medical coordinators in the investigation, and authorized
clerical staff shall be indemnified by the State for any actions
occurring within the scope of services on the Disciplinary Board, done
in good faith and not wilful and wanton in nature. The Attorney
General shall defend all such actions unless he or she determines
either that there would be a conflict of interest in such
41 [May 16, 2001]
representation or that the actions complained of were not in good faith
or were wilful and wanton.
Should the Attorney General decline representation, the member
shall have the right to employ counsel of his or her choice, whose fees
shall be provided by the State, after approval by the Attorney General,
unless there is a determination by a court that the member's actions
were not in good faith or were wilful and wanton.
The member must notify the Attorney General within 7 days of
receipt of notice of the initiation of any action involving services of
the Disciplinary Board. Failure to so notify the Attorney General
shall constitute an absolute waiver of the right to a defense and
indemnification.
The Attorney General shall determine within 7 days after receiving
such notice, whether he or she will undertake to represent the member.
(E) Deliberations of Disciplinary Board. Upon the receipt of any
report called for by this Act, other than those reports of impaired
persons licensed under this Act required pursuant to the rules of the
Disciplinary Board, the Disciplinary Board shall notify in writing, by
certified mail, the person who is the subject of the report. Such
notification shall be made within 30 days of receipt by the
Disciplinary Board of the report.
The notification shall include a written notice setting forth the
person's right to examine the report. Included in such notification
shall be the address at which the file is maintained, the name of the
custodian of the reports, and the telephone number at which the
custodian may be reached. The person who is the subject of the report
shall submit a written statement responding, clarifying, adding to, or
proposing the amending of the report previously filed. The statement
shall become a permanent part of the file and must be received by the
Disciplinary Board no more than 60 days after the date on which the
person was notified by the Disciplinary Board of the existence of the
original report.
The Disciplinary Board shall review all reports received by it,
together with any supporting information and responding statements
submitted by persons who are the subject of reports. The review by the
Disciplinary Board shall be in a timely manner but in no event, shall
the Disciplinary Board's initial review of the material contained in
each disciplinary file be less than 61 days nor more than 180 days
after the receipt of the initial report by the Disciplinary Board.
When the Disciplinary Board makes its initial review of the
materials contained within its disciplinary files, the Disciplinary
Board shall, in writing, make a determination as to whether there are
sufficient facts to warrant further investigation or action. Failure
to make such determination within the time provided shall be deemed to
be a determination that there are not sufficient facts to warrant
further investigation or action.
Should the Disciplinary Board find that there are not sufficient
facts to warrant further investigation, or action, the report shall be
accepted for filing and the matter shall be deemed closed and so
reported to the Director. The Director shall then have 30 days to
accept the Medical Disciplinary Board's decision or request further
investigation. The Director shall inform the Board in writing of the
decision to request further investigation, including the specific
reasons for the decision. The individual or entity filing the original
report or complaint and the person who is the subject of the report or
complaint shall be notified in writing by the Director of any final
action on their report or complaint.
(F) Summary reports. The Disciplinary Board shall prepare, on a
timely basis, but in no event less than one every other month, a
summary report of final actions taken upon disciplinary files
maintained by the Disciplinary Board. The summary reports shall be sent
by the Disciplinary Board to every health care facility licensed by the
Illinois Department of Public Health, every professional association
and society of persons licensed under this Act functioning on a
statewide basis in this State, the American Medical Association, the
American Osteopathic Association, the American Chiropractic
[May 16, 2001] 42
Association, all insurers providing professional liability insurance to
persons licensed under this Act in the State of Illinois, the
Federation of State Medical Licensing Boards, and the Illinois
Pharmacists Association.
(G) Any violation of this Section shall be a Class A misdemeanor.
(H) If any such person violates the provisions of this Section an
action may be brought in the name of the People of the State of
Illinois, through the Attorney General of the State of Illinois, for an
order enjoining such violation or for an order enforcing compliance
with this Section. Upon filing of a verified petition in such court,
the court may issue a temporary restraining order without notice or
bond and may preliminarily or permanently enjoin such violation, and if
it is established that such person has violated or is violating the
injunction, the court may punish the offender for contempt of court.
Proceedings under this paragraph shall be in addition to, and not in
lieu of, all other remedies and penalties provided for by this Section.

There being no further amendments, the bill was advanced to the
order of Third Reading.
RESOLUTIONS
The following resolutions were offered and placed in the Committee
on Rules.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 303
Offered by Representative Hoffman:
WHEREAS, More than almost all other consumer purchases, the
ability to purchase medications has a direct, discernible impact on the
health and life of this State's citizens; and
WHEREAS, A substantial and significant portion of the prescription
drug price and cost to the consumer and the State is represented by
advertising, particularly direct-to-consumer advertising; and
WHEREAS, The National Institute for Health Care Management has
reported that "... prescription drugs advertised directly to consumers
are the largest and fastest selling medicines. They contributed
significantly to the 19% increase in pharmaceutical spending in 1999.
Direct-to-consumer advertising accounted for 27% of the $6.6 billion
drug companies spent directly promoting their products. Mass media
advertising was 22% of all direct promotion expenses in 1998 compared
to 10% in 1995 ..."; and
WHEREAS, This marked increase in spending by pharmaceutical
companies and distributors for direct-to-consumer advertising began
with the relaxation of federal regulations in 1997. In 1999, drug
companies spent $1.8 billion on mass media advertising, up 38.5% from
the amount spent in 1998 and 33 times the $55 million spent on mass
media in 1991. The drug industry has increased its direct-to-consumer
ad spending by 40% per year. Television ads accounted for 70% -- $1.1
billion -- of the 1998 spending. At the current pace, all ad spending
was expected to exceed $2 billion in 2000; and
WHEREAS, Some drug companies are now spending more of their revenue
on advertising, marketing, and administrative costs than on research.
According to Public Citizen's Congress Watch, Fortune 500 drug
companies allocated 17% of their revenue into profits last year and 30%
into marketing and administration, but spent just 12% on research and
development. The National Institute for Health Care Management reports
that this increase in consumer advertising could be responsible for 25%
of the recent increase in prescription drug spending. There is growing
concern that this priority on advertising is short-changing new product
research and development and may be confusing to consumers and
affecting their relationships with health care providers. As a result,
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is planning a study to
determine whether these ads are causing more harm than good. The FDA
will be reviewing its direct-to-consumer advertising policy to
determine whether it should be changed, rescinded, or kept in place;
and
WHEREAS, This excessive advertising may result in consumers making
inappropriate demands for newer, costlier medicines, when less
expensive drugs may be as or more appropriate; and
WHEREAS, Health insurance companies claim that direct-to-consumer
53 [May 16, 2001]
advertising motivates consumers to go to the doctor to ask for more
expensive drugs than necessary or for unnecessary drugs, which, in
turn, is responsible in part for large increases in health insurance
premiums; and
WHEREAS, There are no accurate reported figures on what
pharmaceutical companies and distributors spend on advertising; and
WHEREAS, Researchers have indicated that assumptions of the amount
of advertising are based on extrapolation from data in the public
domain since they were unable to obtain data directly from the
pharmaceutical companies; and
WHEREAS, The State of Illinois is a major purchaser of prescription
medications amounting to nearly $1.5 billion per year, and the
spiralling cost of direct-to-consumer advertising is contributing to
the State's excessive prescription drug liability, so the State has a
compelling interest in controlling drug costs; and
WHEREAS, Pharmaceutical companies claim that any action by the
government to deal with those increasing prices and costs will have a
negative impact on their capacity to engage in vital research and
development; and
WHEREAS, The House of Representatives needs data that is reliable
and valid to evaluate the competing claims of consumer groups and the
pharmaceutical companies; and
WHEREAS, The House of Representatives has determined that it must
require pharmaceutical companies and distributors to provide data
through the disclosure of their expenditures for mass media
direct-to-consumer advertising and correspondence to consumers; and
WHEREAS, The Illinois Health Care Cost Containment Council was
established to contain health care costs and to identify appropriate
utilization practices through the collection and dissemination of data
obtained from appropriate sources; and
WHEREAS, The Illinois Health Care Cost Containment Council is
authorized to collect data and provide reports on health issues, and a
report on prescription drug advertising that influences health care
costs is consistent with the Council's duty to promote health care cost
containment and to identify appropriate utilization practices in order
to contain costs and to ensure access to quality care through the
dissemination of data to purchasers and consumers of health care and to
public officials who determine health-related programs and policies;
and
WHEREAS, The Illinois Health Care Cost Containment Council is best
situated to aid the House of Representatives in determining whether
this State's citizens benefit from the additional prices and costs of
prescription drugs attributable to advertising; therefore be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that the Illinois Health
Care Cost Containment Council (hereinafter, "the Council") shall
conduct a cost/benefit analysis of advertising associated with the
provision of prescription drugs to this State's citizens by
pharmaceutical companies and distributors; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the Council shall utilize a methodology to determine
the impact upon the necessity for inpatient hospital care, major
ambulatory services, invasive procedures, numbers of visits to health
care professionals, and health insurance premium rates relative to the
costs associated with advertising directed toward this State's citizens
by pharmaceutical companies and distributors; and be it further
RESOLVED, That at reasonable intervals, as determined by the
Council, pharmaceutical companies and distributors that provide
prescription drugs under programs administered by this State shall
cooperate with the Council in providing information necessary to carry
out the Council's analysis; and be it further
RESOLVED, That pharmaceutical companies and distributors that
advertise in media to reach an Illinois audience, and pharmaceutical
companies and distributors that correspond directly with consumers,
shall disclose the aggregate cost of the advertising of prescription
drugs in the media and in correspondence to the consumer. For purposes
of this paragraph, "media" includes, but is not limited to, radio,
[May 16, 2001] 54
television, the Internet, daily and weekly magazines and newspapers,
billboards, and signs; and "correspondence" means direct mail,
telephone communications, and electronic mail directed to specific
individuals or households; and be it further
RESOLVED, That pharmaceutical companies and distributors referred
to in the preceding paragraphs shall disclose the aggregate of the
portion of salaries of their drug representatives and salespersons who
have all or part of their employment in activities enumerated in the
preceding paragraphs; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the Council shall collect and compile data from
pharmaceutical companies and distributors required to provide
information pursuant to this Resolution. The Council shall use
appropriate measures to analyze and compare data with data on inpatient
hospital stays, ambulatory services, invasive procedures, and visits to
health care professionals to conduct the cost/benefit analysis required
pursuant to this Resolution; and be it further
RESOLVED, That if any pharmaceutical company or distributor fails
to cooperate with the Council in providing information pursuant to this
Resolution, the Council shall promptly report that failure to the House
of Representatives; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the Council shall disseminate data in accordance
with this Resolution and shall, no later than one year after the
adoption of this Resolution, make recommendations to the House of
Representatives on the costs associated with advertising by
pharmaceutical companies and distributors. The recommendations shall
include, but need not be limited to, the State of Illinois reforming
its methods and procedures to limit payments of advertising costs by
the State under insurance and other health plans and programs that
cover prescription drugs for State employees, residents of
State-operated facilities for the mentally ill and developmentally
disabled, inmates of State correctional facilities, residents of
veterans facilities, senior citizens and the disabled, and Medicaid
recipients; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the Department of Public Aid, the Department of
Children and Family Services, the Department of Human Services, the
Department of Revenue, and the Department of Central Management
Services shall cooperate with the Council in the acquisition of the
required cost information, in the analysis of the collected data, and
in the development of the recommendations regarding reforms of State
purchasing of prescription drugs. The Council, in conjunction with the
Department of Public Aid, shall also determine the necessity and
procedure for obtaining federal approval for implementing changes in
Illinois' Medicaid program to effect cost controls with respect to
prescription drug payments, including but not limited to the
disallowance of unreasonable advertising costs, and the Department of
Public Aid shall obtain the approval necessary to implement such
controls; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the Council shall estimate cost savings that may be
achieved by limiting the State's liability for costs related to
prescription drug advertising; and be it further
RESOLVED, That any savings achieved by cost control measures
related to direct-to-consumer advertising shall be reinvested in the
State's Medical Assistance program; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be delivered to the
Chairman of the Illinois Health Care Cost Containment Council.

Sec. 7. Powers of trustees.
(a) The trustees shall have power to provide for the requisite
[May 16, 2001] 66
buildings, apparatus, and conveniences; to fix the rates for tuition;
to appoint such professors and instructors, and to establish and
provide for the management of such model farms, model art, and other

agriculture and the mechanic arts, and military tactics, without
excluding other scientific and classical studies. The trustees shall,
upon the written request of an employee withhold from the compensation
of that employee any dues, payments or contributions payable by such
employee to any labor organization as defined in the Illinois
Educational Labor Relations Act. Under such arrangement, an amount
shall be withheld from each regular payroll period which is equal to
the pro rata share of the annual dues plus any payments or
contributions, and the trustees shall transmit such withholdings to the
specified labor organization within 10 working days from the time of
the withholding. They may accept the endowments and voluntary
professorships or departments in the University, from any person or
persons or corporations who may offer the same, and, at any regular
meeting of the board, may prescribe rules and regulations in relation
to such endowments and declare on what general principles they may be
admitted: Provided, that such special voluntary endowments or
professorships shall not be incompatible with the true design and scope
of the act of congress, or of this Act: Provided, that no student shall
at any time be allowed to remain in or about the University in
idleness, or without full mental or industrial occupation: And provided
further, that the trustees, in the exercise of any of the powers
conferred by this Act, shall not create any liability or indebtedness
in excess of the funds in the hands of the treasurer of the University
at the time of creating such liability or indebtedness, and which may
be specially and properly applied to the payment of the same. Any lease
to the trustees of lands, buildings or facilities which will support
scientific research and development in such areas as high technology,
super computing, microelectronics, biotechnology, robotics, physics and
engineering shall be for a term not to exceed 18 years, and may grant
to the trustees the option to purchase the lands, buildings or
facilities. The lease shall recite that it is subject to termination
and cancellation in any year for which the General Assembly fails to
make an appropriation to pay the rent payable under the terms of the
lease.
Leases for the purposes described herein exceeding 5 years shall
have the approval of the Illinois Board of Higher Education.
The Board of Trustees may, directly or in cooperation with other
institutions of higher education, acquire by purchase or lease or
otherwise, and construct, enlarge, improve, equip, complete, operate,
control and manage medical research and high technology parks, together
with the necessary lands, buildings, facilities, equipment and personal
property therefor, to encourage and facilitate (a) the location and

land, buildings, facilities, equipment or other property included in a
medical research and high technology park upon such terms and
conditions as the University of Illinois may deem advisable and enter
into any contract or agreement with such nonprofit corporations as may
be necessary or suitable for the construction, financing, operation and
maintenance and management of any such park; and may lease to any
person, firm, partnership or corporation, either public or private, any
part or all of the land, building, facilities, equipment or other
property of such park for such purposes and upon such rentals, terms

technology park, and all equipment and furnishings, by legislative
appropriations, government grants, contracts, private gifts, loans,

similar receipts; and may make its other facilities and services
available to tenants or other occupants of any such park at rates which
are reasonable and appropriate.
The Trustees shall have power (a) to purchase real property and
easements, and (b) to acquire real property and easements in the manner
provided by law for the exercise of the right of eminent domain, and in
the event negotiations for the acquisition of real property or
easements for making any improvement which the Trustees are authorized
to make shall have proven unsuccessful and the Trustees shall have by
resolution adopted a schedule or plan of operation for the execution of
the project and therein made a finding that it is necessary to take
such property or easements immediately or at some specified later date
in order to comply with the schedule, the Trustees may acquire such
property or easements in the same manner provided in Sections 7-103
through 7-112 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

Section 25. The Health Care Worker Self-Referral Act is amended by
changing Section 20 as follows:
(225 ILCS 47/20)
Sec. 20. Prohibited referrals and claims for payment.
(a) A health care worker shall not refer a patient for health
services to an entity outside the health care worker's office or group
practice in which the health care worker is an investor, unless the
health care worker directly provides health services within the entity
and will be personally involved with the provision of care to the
referred patient.
(b) Pursuant to Board determination that the following exception
is applicable, a health care worker may invest in and refer to an
entity, whether or not the health care worker provides direct services
within said entity, if there is a demonstrated need in the community
for the entity and alternative financing is not available. For
purposes of this subsection (b), "demonstrated need" in the community
for the entity may exist if (1) there is no facility of reasonable
quality that provides medically appropriate service, (2) use of
existing facilities is onerous or creates too great a hardship for
patients, (3) the entity is formed to own or lease medical equipment
which replaces obsolete or otherwise inadequate equipment in or under
75 [May 16, 2001]
the control of a hospital located in a federally designated health
manpower shortage area, or (4) such other standards as established, by
rule, by the Board. "Community" shall be defined as a metropolitan
area for a city, and a county for a rural area. In addition, the
following provisions must be met to be exempt under this Section:
(1) Individuals who are not in a position to refer patients
to an entity are given a bona fide opportunity to also invest in
the entity on the same terms as those offered a referring health
care worker; and
(2) No health care worker who invests shall be required or
encouraged to make referrals to the entity or otherwise generate
business as a condition of becoming or remaining an investor; and
(3) The entity shall market or furnish its services to
referring health care worker investors and other investors on equal
terms; and
(4) The entity shall not loan funds or guarantee any loans
for health care workers who are in a position to refer to an
entity; and
(5) The income on the health care worker's investment shall
be tied to the health care worker's equity in the facility rather
than to the volume of referrals made; and
(6) Any investment contract between the entity and the health
care worker shall not include any covenant or non-competition
clause that prevents a health care worker from investing in other
entities; and
(7) When making a referral, a health care worker must
disclose his investment interest in an entity to the patient being
referred to such entity. If alternative facilities are reasonably
available, the health care worker must provide the patient with a
list of alternative facilities. The health care worker shall inform
the patient that they have the option to use an alternative
facility other than one in which the health care worker has an
investment interest and the patient will not be treated differently
by the health care worker if the patient chooses to use another
entity. This shall be applicable to all health care worker
investors, including those who provide direct care or services for
their patients in entities outside their office practices; and
(8) If a third party payor requests information with regard
to a health care worker's investment interest, the same shall be
disclosed; and
(9) The entity shall establish an internal utilization review
program to ensure that investing health care workers provided
appropriate or necessary utilization; and
(10) If a health care worker's financial interest in an
entity is incompatible with a referred patient's interest, the
health care worker shall make alternative arrangements for the
patient's care.
The Board shall make such a determination for a health care worker
within 90 days of a completed written request. Failure to make such a
determination within the 90 day time frame shall mean that no
alternative is practical based upon the facts set forth in the
completed written request.
(c) It shall not be a violation of this Act for a health care
worker to refer a patient for health services to a publicly traded
entity in which he or she has an investment interest provided that:
(1) the entity is listed for trading on the New York Stock
Exchange or on the American Stock Exchange, or is a national market
system security traded under an automated inter-dealer quotation
system operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers;
and
(2) the entity had, at the end of the corporation's most
recent fiscal year, total net assets of at least $30,000,000
related to the furnishing of health services; and
(3) any investment interest obtained after the effective date
of this Act is traded on the exchanges listed in paragraph 1 of
subsection (c) of this Section after the entity became a publicly
[May 16, 2001] 76
traded corporation; and
(4) the entity markets or furnishes its services to referring
health care worker investors and other health care workers on equal
terms; and
(5) all stock held in such publicly traded companies,
including stock held in the predecessor privately held company,
shall be of one class without preferential treatment as to status
or remuneration; and
(6) the entity does not loan funds or guarantee any loans for
health care workers who are in a position to be referred to an
entity; and
(7) the income on the health care worker's investment is tied
to the health care worker's equity in the entity rather than to the
volume of referrals made; and
(8) the investment interest does not exceed 1/2 of 1% of the
entity's total equity.
(d) Any hospital licensed under the Hospital Licensing Act shall
not discriminate against or otherwise penalize a health care worker for
compliance with this Act.
(e) Any health care worker or other entity shall not enter into an
arrangement or scheme seeking to make referrals to another health care

of this Act by inducing patient referrals which would be prohibited by
this Section if the health care worker or entity made the referral
directly.
(f) If compliance with the need and alternative investor criteria
is not practical, the health care worker shall identify to the patient
reasonably available alternative facilities. The Board shall, by rule,
designate when compliance is "not practical".
(g) Health care workers may request from the Board that it render
an advisory opinion that a referral to an existing or proposed entity
under specified circumstances does or does not violate the provisions
of this Act. The Board's opinion shall be presumptively correct.
Failure to render such an advisory opinion within 90 days of a
completed written request pursuant to this Section shall create a
rebuttable presumption that a referral described in the completed
written request is not or will not be a violation of this Act.
(h) Notwithstanding any provision of this Act to the contrary, a
health care worker may refer a patient, who is a member of a health
maintenance organization "HMO" licensed in this State, for health

any such referral is made pursuant to a contract with the HMO.
Furthermore, notwithstanding any provision of this Act to the contrary,
a health care worker may refer an enrollee of a "managed care community
network", as defined in subsection (b) of Section 5-11 5-16.3 of the
Illinois Public Aid Code, for health services to an entity, outside the
health care worker's office or group practice, in which the health care
worker is an investor, provided that any such referral is made pursuant
to a contract with the managed care community network.

Section 30. The Illinois Public Aid Code is amended by changing
Sections 5-11, 5-16.9, 5-16.11, 15-2, 15-3, 15-4, and 15-5 as follows:
(305 ILCS 5/5-11) (from Ch. 23, par. 5-11)
Sec. 5-11. Co-operative arrangements; contracts with other State
agencies, health care and rehabilitation organizations, and fiscal
intermediaries.
(a) The Illinois Department may enter into co-operative
arrangements with State agencies responsible for administering or
supervising the administration of health services and vocational
rehabilitation services to the end that there may be maximum
utilization of such services in the provision of medical assistance.
The Illinois Department shall, not later than June 30, 1993, enter
into one or more co-operative arrangements with the Department of
Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities providing that the
77 [May 16, 2001]
Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities will be
responsible for administering or supervising all programs for services
to persons in community care facilities for persons with developmental
disabilities, including but not limited to intermediate care
facilities, that are supported by State funds or by funding under Title
XIX of the federal Social Security Act. The responsibilities of the
Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities under these
agreements are transferred to the Department of Human Services as
provided in the Department of Human Services Act.
The Department may also contract with such State health and
rehabilitation agencies and other public or private health care and
rehabilitation organizations to act for it in supplying designated
medical services to persons eligible therefor under this Article. Any
contracts with health services or health maintenance organizations
shall be restricted to organizations which have been certified as being
in compliance with standards promulgated pursuant to the laws of this
State governing the establishment and operation of health services or
health maintenance organizations. The Department may also contract with
insurance companies or other corporate entities serving as fiscal
intermediaries in this State for the Federal Government in respect to
Medicare payments under Title XVIII of the Federal Social Security Act
to act for the Department in paying medical care suppliers. The
provisions of Section 9 of "An Act in relation to State finance",
approved June 10, 1919, as amended, notwithstanding, such contracts
with State agencies, other health care and rehabilitation
organizations, or fiscal intermediaries may provide for advance
payments.
(b) For purposes of this subsection (b), "managed care community
network" means an entity, other than a health maintenance organization,
that is owned, operated, or governed by providers of health care
services within this State and that provides or arranges primary,
secondary, and tertiary managed health care services under contract
with the Illinois Department exclusively to persons participating in
programs administered by the Illinois Department.
The Illinois Department may certify managed care community
networks, including managed care community networks owned, operated,
managed, or governed by State-funded medical schools, as risk-bearing
entities eligible to contract with the Illinois Department as Medicaid
managed care organizations. The Illinois Department may contract with
those managed care community networks to furnish health care services
to or arrange those services for individuals participating in programs
administered by the Illinois Department. The rates for those
provider-sponsored organizations may be determined on a prepaid,
capitated basis. A managed care community network may choose to
contract with the Illinois Department to provide only pediatric health
care services. The Illinois Department shall by rule adopt the
criteria, standards, and procedures by which a managed care community
network may be permitted to contract with the Illinois Department and
shall consult with the Department of Insurance in adopting these rules.
A county provider as defined in Section 15-1 of this Code may
contract with the Illinois Department to provide primary, secondary, or
tertiary managed health care services as a managed care community
network without the need to establish a separate entity and shall be
deemed a managed care community network for purposes of this Code only
to the extent it provides services to participating individuals. A
county provider is entitled to contract with the Illinois Department
with respect to any contracting region located in whole or in part
within the county. A county provider is not required to accept
enrollees who do not reside within the county.
In order to (i) accelerate and facilitate the development of
integrated health care in contracting areas outside counties with
populations in excess of 3,000,000 and counties adjacent to those
counties and (ii) maintain and sustain the high quality of education
and residency programs coordinated and associated with local area
hospitals, the Illinois Department may develop and implement a
demonstration program from managed care community networks owned,
[May 16, 2001] 78
operated, managed, or governed by State-funded medical schools. The
Illinois Department shall prescribe by rule the criteria, standards,
and procedures for effecting this demonstration program.
A managed care community network that contracts with the Illinois
Department to furnish health care services to or arrange those services
for enrollees participating in programs administered by the Illinois
Department shall do all of the following:
(1) Provide that any provider affiliated with the managed
care community network may also provide services on a
fee-for-service basis to Illinois Department clients not enrolled
in such managed care entities.
(2) Provide client education services as determined and
approved by the Illinois Department, including but not limited to
(i) education regarding appropriate utilization of health care
services in a managed care system, (ii) written disclosure of
treatment policies and restrictions or limitations on health
services, including, but not limited to, physical services,
clinical laboratory tests, hospital and surgical procedures,
prescription drugs and biologics, and radiological examinations,
and (iii) written notice that the enrollee may receive from another
provider those covered services that are not provided by the
managed care community network.
(3) Provide that enrollees within the system may choose the
site for provision of services and the panel of health care
providers.
(4) Not discriminate in enrollment or disenrollment practices
among recipients of medical services or enrollees based on health
status.
(5) Provide a quality assurance and utilization review
program that meets the requirements established by the Illinois
Department in rules that incorporate those standards set forth in
the Health Maintenance Organization Act.
(6) Issue a managed care community network identification
card to each enrollee upon enrollment. The card must contain all
of the following:
(A) The enrollee's health plan.
(B) The name and telephone number of the enrollee's
primary care physician or the site for receiving primary care
services.
(C) A telephone number to be used to confirm eligibility
for benefits and authorization for services that is available
24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
(7) Ensure that every primary care physician and pharmacy in
the managed care community network meets the standards established
by the Illinois Department for accessibility and quality of care.
The Illinois Department shall arrange for and oversee an evaluation
of the standards established under this paragraph (7) and may
recommend any necessary changes to these standards.
(8) Provide a procedure for handling complaints that meets
the requirements established by the Illinois Department in rules
that incorporate those standards set forth in the Health
Maintenance Organization Act.
(9) Maintain, retain, and make available to the Illinois
Department records, data, and information, in a uniform manner
determined by the Illinois Department, sufficient for the Illinois
Department to monitor utilization, accessibility, and quality of
care.
(10) Provide that the pharmacy formulary used by the managed
care community network and its contract providers be no more
restrictive than the Illinois Department's pharmaceutical program
on the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1998 and as amended
after that date.
The Illinois Department shall contract with an entity or entities
to provide external peer-based quality assurance review for the managed
health care programs administered by the Illinois Department. The
entity shall be representative of Illinois physicians licensed to
79 [May 16, 2001]
practice medicine in all its branches and have statewide geographic
representation in all specialities of medical care that are provided in
managed health care programs administered by the Illinois Department.
The entity may not be a third party payer and shall maintain offices in
locations around the State in order to provide service and continuing
medical education to physician participants within those managed health
care programs administered by the Illinois Department. The review
process shall be developed and conducted by Illinois physicians
licensed to practice medicine in all its branches. In consultation
with the entity, the Illinois Department may contract with other
entities for professional peer-based quality assurance review of
individual categories of services other than services provided,
supervised, or coordinated by physicians licensed to practice medicine
in all its branches. The Illinois Department shall establish, by rule,
criteria to avoid conflicts of interest in the conduct of quality
assurance activities consistent with professional peer-review
standards. All quality assurance activities shall be coordinated by
the Illinois Department.
Each managed care community network must demonstrate its ability to
bear the financial risk of serving individuals under this program. The
Illinois Department shall by rule adopt standards for assessing the
solvency and financial soundness of each managed care community
network. Any solvency and financial standards adopted for managed care
community networks shall be no more restrictive than the solvency and
financial standards adopted under Section 1856(a) of the Social
Security Act for provider-sponsored organizations under Part C of Title
XVIII of the Social Security Act.
The Illinois Department may implement the amendatory changes to
this Code made by this amendatory Act of 1998 through the use of
emergency rules in accordance with Section 5-45 of the Illinois
Administrative Procedure Act. For purposes of that Act, the adoption
of rules to implement these changes is deemed an emergency and
necessary for the public interest, safety, and welfare.
(c) Not later than June 30, 1996, the Illinois Department shall
enter into one or more cooperative arrangements with the Department of
Public Health for the purpose of developing a single survey for nursing
facilities, including but not limited to facilities funded under Title
XVIII or Title XIX of the federal Social Security Act or both, which
shall be administered and conducted solely by the Department of Public
Health. The Departments shall test the single survey process on a pilot
basis, with both the Departments of Public Aid and Public Health
represented on the consolidated survey team. The pilot will sunset
June 30, 1997. After June 30, 1997, unless otherwise determined by the
Governor, a single survey shall be implemented by the Department of
Public Health which would not preclude staff from the Department of
Public Aid from going on-site to nursing facilities to perform
necessary audits and reviews which shall not replicate the single State
agency survey required by this Act. This Section shall not apply to
community or intermediate care facilities for persons with
developmental disabilities.
(d) Nothing in this Code in any way limits or otherwise impairs
the authority or power of the Illinois Department to enter into a
negotiated contract pursuant to this Section with a managed care
community network or a health maintenance organization, as defined in
the Health Maintenance Organization Act, that provides for termination
or nonrenewal of the contract without cause, upon notice as provided in
the contract, and without a hearing.

of the Social Security Act or pursuant to Section 5-11 or 5-16.3 of
this Code in each fiscal year ending June 30 (or fraction thereof
during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1993) and $108,800,000 (or

amendments to the Illinois State Plan to effect the foregoing payment
methodology.
(c) The Illinois Department shall implement the changes made by
Article 3 of this amendatory Act of 1992 beginning October 1, 1992.

conditions of all such initial agreements and, where no such initial
agreement has yet been executed with a qualifying county, the Illinois
Department's reasons that each such initial agreement has not been
executed. Copies and reports of amended agreements following the
initial agreements shall likewise be filed by the Illinois Department
with the Hospital Service Procurement Advisory Board and the Health
Care Cost Containment Council within 30 days following their execution.
The foregoing filing obligations of the Illinois Department are

(d) The payments provided for herein are intended to cover
services rendered on and after July 1, 1991, and any agreement executed
between a qualifying county and the Illinois Department pursuant to
this Section may relate back to that date, provided the Illinois
Department obtains federal approval. Any changes in payment rates
resulting from the provisions of Article 3 of this amendatory Act of
1992 are intended to apply to services rendered on or after October 1,
1992, and any agreement executed between a qualifying county and the
Illinois Department pursuant to this Section may be effective as of

(e) If one or more hospitals file suit in any court challenging
any part of this Article XV, payments to hospitals from the Fund under
this Article XV shall be made only to the extent that sufficient monies
are available in the Fund and only to the extent that any monies in the
Fund are not prohibited from disbursement and may be disbursed under
any order of the court.

An investigator may not hold an active license issued pursuant to

the licensee provided to the State Fire Marshal.
(b) Each licensee may apply for renewal of his or her license upon
payment of the requisite fee. The expiration date and renewal period
for each license issued under this Act shall be set by rule. Failure
to renew within 60 days of the date shall cause the license to lapse. A
lapsed license may not be reinstated until a written application is
89 [May 16, 2001]
filed, the renewal fee is paid, and a $50 reinstatement fee is paid.
The renewal and reinstatement fees shall be waived for persons who did
not renew while on active duty in the military and who file for renewal
or restoration within one year after discharge from the active duty
service.
(c) All fees paid pursuant to this Act are non-refundable.
Section 50. Returned checks. Any person who on 2 occasions issues

Fire Marshal, in addition to the amount owing upon the check or other
order, a fee of $50. If the check or other order was issued or
delivered in payment of a renewal fee and the licensee whose license
has lapsed continues to practice without paying the renewal fee and the
$50 fee required under this Section, an additional fee of $100 shall be
imposed for practicing without a current license. The State Fire
Marshal shall notify the licensee whose license has lapsed within 30
days after the discovery by the State Fire Marshal that the licensee is
practicing without a current license, that the person is acting as a

include the lapsed renewal fee and all other fees required by this
Section. If after the expiration of 30 days from the date of such
notification, the licensee whose license has lapsed seeks a current
license, he or she shall apply to the State Fire Marshal for
reinstatement of the license and pay all fees due to the State Fire
Marshal. The State Fire Marshal may establish a fee for the processing
of an application for reinstatement of a license that allows the State
Fire Marshal to pay all costs and expenses incident to the processing
of this application. The State Fire Marshal may waive the fees due
under this Section in individual cases where he or she finds that the
fees would be unreasonable or unnecessarily burdensome.
Section 60. License renewal; display of license; inspection.

practice that the State Fire Marshal determines to be in the interest

rules providing for the issuance and revocation of permits allowing the
self service dispensing of motor fuels as such term is defined in the
Motor Fuel Tax Law in retail service stations or any other place of
business where motor fuels are dispensed into the fuel tanks of motor
vehicles, internal combustion engines or portable containers. Such
rules shall specify the requirements that must be met both prior and
subsequent to the issuance of such permits in order to insure the
safety and welfare of the general public. The operation of such
service stations without a permit shall be unlawful. The Office of the
State Fire Marshal shall revoke such permit if the self service
operation of such a service station is found to pose a significant risk
to the safety and welfare of the general public.
(c) However, except in any county with a population of 1,000,000
or more, the Office of the State Fire Marshal shall not have the
authority to prohibit the operation of a service station solely on the
basis that it is an unattended self-service station which utilizes key
or card operated self-service motor fuel dispensing devices. Nothing
in this paragraph shall prohibit the Office of the State Fire Marshal
from adopting reasonable rules and regulations governing the safety of
self-service motor fuel dispensing devices.
(d) The State Fire Marshal shall not prohibit the dispensing or
delivery of flammable or combustible motor vehicle fuels directly into
the fuel tanks of vehicles from tank trucks, tank wagons, or other
portable tanks. The State Fire Marshal shall adopt rules (i) for the
issuance of permits for the dispensing of motor vehicle fuels in the
manner described in this paragraph (d), (ii) that establish fees for
permits and inspections, and provide for those fees to be deposited
into the Fire Prevention Fund, (iii) that require the dispensing of
[May 16, 2001] 94
motor fuel in the manner described in this paragraph (d) to meet
conditions consistent with nationally recognized standards such as
those of the National Fire Protection Association, and (iv) that
restrict the dispensing of motor vehicle fuels in the manner described
in this paragraph (d) to the following:
(A) agriculture sites for agricultural purposes,
(B) construction sites for refueling construction equipment
used at the construction site,
(C) sites used for the parking, operation, or maintenance of
a commercial vehicle fleet, but only if the site is located in a
county with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants or a county contiguous to
a county with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants and the site is not
normally accessible to the public, and
(D) sites used for the refueling of police, fire, or
emergency medical services vehicles or other vehicles that are
owned, leased, or operated by (or operated under contract with) the
State, a unit of local government, or a school district, or any
agency of the State and that are not normally accessible to the
public.
(2) (a) The Office of the State Fire Marshal shall adopt rules and
regulations regarding underground storage tanks and associated piping
and no municipality or other political subdivision shall adopt or
enforce any ordinances or regulations regarding such underground tanks
and piping other than those which are identical to the rules and
regulations of the Office of the State Fire Marshal. It is declared to
be the law of this State, pursuant to paragraphs (h) and (i) of Section
6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution, that the establishment
and enforcement of standards regarding underground storage tanks and
associated piping within the jurisdiction of the Office of the State
Fire Marshal is an exclusive State function which may not be exercised
concurrently by a home rule unit except as expressly permitted in this
Act.
(b) The Office of the State Fire Marshal may enter into written
contracts with municipalities of over 500,000 in population to enforce
the rules and regulations adopted under this subsection.
(3) (a) The Office of the State Fire Marshal shall have authority
over underground storage tanks which contain, have contained, or are
designed to contain petroleum, hazardous substances and regulated
substances as those terms are used in Subtitle I of the Hazardous and
Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (P.L. 98-616), as amended by the
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (P.L. 99-499).
The Office shall have the power with regard to underground storage
tanks to require any person who tests, installs, repairs, replaces,
relines, or removes any underground storage tank system containing,
formerly containing, or which is designed to contain petroleum or other
regulated substances to be certified to perform that activity, to
obtain a permit to install, repair, replace, reline, or remove the
particular tank system, to pay an annual certification fee of $100 per
year, and to pay a fee set by the Office of $100 per site for a permit
to install, repair, replace, reline, upgrade, test, or remove any
portion of an underground storage tank system. All persons who do
repairs above grade level for themselves need not pay a fee or be
certified. All fees received by the Office from certification and
permits shall be deposited in the Fire Prevention Fund for the
exclusive use of the Office in administering the Underground Storage
Tank program.
(b) (i) Within 120 days after the promulgation of regulations or
amendments thereto by the Administrator of the United States
Environmental Protection Agency to implement Section 9003 of Subtitle I
of the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (P.L. 98-616) of
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (P.L. 95-580), as
amended, the Office of the State Fire Marshal shall adopt regulations
or amendments thereto which are identical in substance. The rulemaking
provisions of Section 5-35 of the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act
shall not apply to regulations or amendments thereto adopted pursuant
to this subparagraph (i).
95 [May 16, 2001]
(ii) The Office of the State Fire Marshal may adopt additional
regulations relating to an underground storage tank program that are
not inconsistent with and at least as stringent as Section 9003 of
Subtitle I of the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (P.L.
98-616) of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (P.L.
94-580), as amended, or regulations adopted thereunder. Except as
provided otherwise in subparagraph (i) of this paragraph (b), the
Office of the State Fire Marshal shall not adopt regulations relating
to corrective action at underground storage tanks. Regulations adopted
pursuant to this subsection shall be adopted in accordance with the
procedures for rulemaking in Section 5-35 of the Illinois
Administrative Procedure Act.
(c) The Office of the State Fire Marshal shall require any person,
corporation or other entity who tests an underground tank or its piping
or cathodic protection for another, except a lessor for his or her
lessee, to register with the Office, and pay an annual registration fee
of $100, to be deposited in the Fire Prevention Fund, and to report the
results of such test to the Office.
(d) In accordance with constitutional limitations, the Office
shall have authority to enter at all reasonable times upon any private
or public property for the purpose of:
(i) Inspecting and investigating to ascertain possible
violations of this Act, of regulations thereunder or of permits or
terms or conditions thereof; or
(ii) In accordance with the provisions of this Act, taking
whatever emergency action, that is necessary or appropriate, to
assure that the public health or safety is not threatened whenever
there is a release or a substantial threat of a release of
petroleum or a regulated substance from an underground storage
tank.
(e) The Office of the State Fire Marshal may issue an
Administrative Order to any person who it reasonably believes has
violated the rules and regulations governing underground storage tanks,
including the installation, repair, leak detection, cathodic protection
tank testing, removal or release notification. Such an order shall be
served by registered or certified mail or in person. Any person served
with such an order may appeal such order by submitting in writing any
such appeal to the Office within 10 days of the date of receipt of such
order. The Office shall conduct an administrative hearing governed by
the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act and enter an order to
sustain, modify or revoke such order. Any appeal from such order shall
be to the circuit court of the county in which the violation took place
and shall be governed by the Administrative Review Law.
(f) The Office of the State Fire Marshal shall not require the
removal of an underground tank system taken out of operation before
January 2, 1974, except in the case in which the office of the State
Fire Marshal has determined that a release from the underground tank
system poses a current or potential threat to human health and the
environment. In that case, and upon receipt of an Order from the
Office of the State Fire Marshal, the owner or operator of the
nonoperational underground tank system shall assess the excavation zone
and close the system in accordance with regulations promulgated by the
Office of the State Fire Marshal.
(4) (a) The Office of the State Fire Marshal shall adopt rules and
regulations regarding aboveground storage tanks and associated piping
and no municipality or other political subdivision shall adopt or
enforce any ordinances or regulations regarding such aboveground tanks
and piping other than those which are identical to the rules and
regulations of the Office of the State Fire Marshal unless, in the
interest of fire safety, the Office of the State Fire Marshal delegates
such authority to municipalities, political subdivisions or home rule
units. It is declared to be the law of this State, pursuant to
paragraphs (h) and (i) of Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois
Constitution, that the establishment of standards regarding aboveground
storage tanks and associated piping within the jurisdiction of the
Office of the State Fire Marshal is an exclusive State function which
[May 16, 2001] 96
may not be exercised concurrently by a home rule unit except as
expressly permitted in this Act.
(b) The Office of the State Fire Marshal shall enforce its rules
and regulations concerning aboveground storage tanks and associated
piping; however, municipalities may enforce any of their zoning
ordinances or zoning regulations regarding aboveground tanks. The
Office of the State Fire Marshal may issue an administrative order to
any owner of an aboveground storage tank and associated piping it
reasonably believes to be in violation of such rules and regulations to
remedy or remove any such violation. Such an order shall be served by
registered or certified mail or in person. Any person served with such
an order may appeal such order by submitting in writing any such appeal
to the Office within 10 days of the date of receipt of such order. The
Office shall conduct an administrative hearing governed by the Illinois
Administrative Procedure Act and enter an order to sustain, modify or
revoke such order. Any appeal from such order shall be to the circuit
court of the county in which the violation took place and shall be
governed by the Administrative Review Law.
