Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Children and Family Services Act, the AIDS Confidentiality Act, the Communicable Disease Prevention Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Criminal Code of 1961, and the Unified Code of Corrections. Provides that a test for infection with HIV or any other identified causative agent of AIDS must be conducted in accordance with guidelines published by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (in some cases, removes the specification of the ELISA test or another test approved by the Department of Public Health). Provides that a positive result must be confirmed (in some cases, removes the specification of the Western Blot Assay or a more reliable confirmatory test). Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 2
Deletes reference to:
20 ILCS 505/22.3
410 ILCS 305/4
410 ILCS 315/2a
705 ILCS 405/2-11
705 ILCS 405/5-710
720 ILCS 5/12-18
730 ILCS 5/3-6-2
730 ILCS 5/5-5-3
Adds reference to:
410 ILCS 305/5.5 new

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the AIDS Confidentiality Act. Provides that no health care provider (rather than no physician) may order an HIV test without making available, to the person tested, information about the meaning of test results and about the availability of additional testing and referrals. Requires the Department of Public Health to adopt rules to allow for the implementation of HIV/AIDS rapid testing; provides that the rules must include, but need not be limited to, standards for testing and counseling and dissemination of test results. In provisions concerning disclosure of test subjects and results, provides for notice by a physician or other health care provider if a positive test result is confirmed pursuant to guidelines set by the Department of Public Health (instead of confirmed by a Western Blot Assay or more reliable test). Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Adds reference to:
410 ILCS 305/3

Further amends the AIDS Confidentiality Act. In the definition of "health care provider", replaces "physician" with "health care professional"; defines "health care professional" to include a physician, physician assistant, advanced practice registered nurse, dentist, or podiatrist, an individual certified to provide HIV testing and counseling. Makes the requirements concerning ordering of an HIV test applicable to health care professionals instead of health care providers. Provides that Department of Public Health rules concerning HIV/AIDS rapid testing must include standards for ordering and administration of testing and counseling (instead of simply for testing and counseling). Requires confirmation of test results pursuant to rules adopted (instead of guidelines set) by the Department.
