2    AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend Senate Bill 333 by replacing
3everything after the enacting clause with the following:
 
4    "Section 5. The Criminal Identification Act is amended by
5changing Section 3.2 as follows:
 
6    (20 ILCS 2630/3.2)  (from Ch. 38, par. 206-3.2)
7    Sec. 3.2. (a) It is the duty of any person conducting or
8operating a medical facility, or any physician or nurse, as
9soon as treatment permits, to notify the local law enforcement
10agency of that jurisdiction upon the application for treatment
11of a person who is not accompanied by a law enforcement
12officer, when it reasonably appears that the person requesting
13treatment has received:
14        (1) any injury resulting from the discharge of a
15    firearm; or
16        (2) any injury sustained in the commission of or as a

 

 

10300SB0333sam001- 2 -LRB103 26029 AWJ 60036 a

1    victim of a criminal offense; or .
2        (3) any injury sustained as a victim of a criminal
3    offense.
4    (a-5) Except when it reasonably appears that the person
5requesting treatment is a sexual assault survivor, a person
6conducting or operating a medical facility, or a physician or
7nurse at the medical facility, must notify the local law
8enforcement as follows:
9        (1) If a sexual assault survivor consents to
10    notification being made, local law enforcement must be
11    notified as soon as treatment permits. If the sexual
12    assault or sexual abuse occurred in another jurisdiction,
13    the law enforcement officer taking the report must submit
14    the report to the law enforcement agency having
15    jurisdiction as provided in subsection (c) of Section 20
16    of the Sexual Assault Incident Procedure Act.
17        (2) If after being advised of options for notification
18    by a health care provider in a manner that ensures that the
19    decision is not made under duress or as a result of
20    influence from a third party, a sexual assault survivor
21    does not consent to notification being made as soon as
22    treatment permits, notification to the law enforcement
23    agency having jurisdiction must be delayed until after the
24    sexual assault survivor leaves the outpatient treatment
25    location, but no later than 24 hours after the sexual
26    assault survivor leaves. If the law enforcement agency

 

 

10300SB0333sam001- 3 -LRB103 26029 AWJ 60036 a

1    having jurisdiction cannot be reasonably determined, then
2    notification shall be made to the local law enforcement
3    agency of the medical facility. This requirement to delay
4    notifying law enforcement does not change the obligations
5    of mandated reporters under the Abused and Neglected Child
6    Reporting Act, the Adult Protective Services Act, or the
7    Abused and Neglected Long Term Care Facility Residents
8    Reporting Act.
9        (3) If a sexual assault survivor does not consent to
10    notification being made as soon as treatment permits and
11    only consents to the collection and storage of evidence,
12    the person conducting or operating a medical facility, or
13    a physician or nurse at the medical facility, must make
14    the notification in accordance with Section 6.6 or 6.6-1
15    of the Sexual Assault Survivors Emergency Treatment Act.
16    Law enforcement may not be given any personal identifying
17    information for the sexual assault survivor other than
18    using the unique sexual assault evidence kit
19    identification number assigned to the Illinois State
20    Police evidence collection kit or the sexual assault
21    survivor's medical record number. The medical facility,
22    physician, or nurse must record the unique sexual assault
23    evidence kit identification number in the medical record,
24    if one exists, and shall provide the number to the sexual
25    assault survivor or the sexual assault survivor's designee
26    at the time of treatment and later at the request of the

 

 

10300SB0333sam001- 4 -LRB103 26029 AWJ 60036 a

1    sexual assault survivor or their designee.
2        (4) The sexual assault survivor's decision regarding
3    notification of law enforcement must be documented in the
4    medical record. The documentation must also affirm that
5    the sexual assault survivor's decision was made
6    independently and not under duress or as a result of
7    influence of a third party.
8        (5) The notification to law enforcement must be
9    limited to the following information:
10            (A) the date and time the sexual assault survivor
11        presented for treatment;
12            (B) the nature of the criminal offense;
13            (C) the municipality, township, or county where
14        the criminal offense occurred;
15            (D) when necessary to prevent serious and imminent
16        physical harm to others, information that identifies a
17        perpetrator who poses a serious and imminent threat to
18        an identifiable group or individual other than the
19        victim;
20            (E) when applicable, the unique sexual assault
21        evidence kit identification number; and
22            (F) additional information and details about the
23        criminal offense or the sexual assault survivor that
24        the sexual assault survivor gives consent to be given,
25        and this consent must be documented in the medical
26        record.

1        (6) When a sexual assault survivor arrives at the
2    medical facility unconscious, as soon as treatment
3    permits, the health care provider shall make at least 2
4    attempts to contact a surrogate decision maker, as defined
5    by the Health Care Surrogate Act. If no surrogate decision
6    maker responds and the survivor remains unconscious, the
7    medical facility, physician, or nurse shall notify law
8    enforcement.
9        (7) Nothing in this subsection permits a delay in
10    notification to law enforcement when a patient admits to
11    committing a violent crime.
12        (8) Nothing in this subsection permits a delay in
13    notification to law enforcement when a sexual assault
14    survivor is admitted or treated for an injury due to
15    discharge of a firearm or life-threatening injuries.
16    Notification related to the sexual assault shall otherwise
17    meet the requirements of this subsection.
18        (9) Nothing in this subsection changes the obligations
19    of mandated reporters under the Abused and Neglected Child
20    Reporting Act, the Adult Protective Services Act, and the
21    Abused and Neglected Long Term Care Facility Residents
22    Reporting Act, and nothing in this subsection requires a
23    delay in notification of law enforcement by the Department
24    of Children and Family Services, Adult Protective
25    Services, or any other agency receiving a mandated report.
26    Any hospital, physician or nurse shall be forever held

3    (b) Notwithstanding subsection (a), nothing in this
4Section shall be construed to require the reporting of lawful
5health care activity, whether such activity may constitute a
6violation of another state's law.
