Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(210 ILCS 25/7-112) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 627-112)

Sec. 7-112. Blood from paid donor; transfusions.

No blood initially
acquired from a paid donor may be administered by transfusion in Illinois
unless the physician licensed to practice medicine in all its branches, the
dentist, or the podiatric physician who is on the medical staff of a hospital and has
permission from the medical staff to request a transfusion, who is in charge of
the treatment of the patient to whom the blood is to be administered, has
directed that blood acquired from a paid donor be administered to that patient
and has specified in the patient's medical record his reason for this action.

Blood acquired from a paid donor shall be transferred for transfusion
purposes in this State only as expressly permitted by rules promulgated by the
Illinois Department of Public Health.
