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.

Sec. 11. Practice without a license forbidden and exceptions. A. It
shall be deemed prima facie evidence of the practice of podiatric medicine
or of holding one's self out as a podiatric physician within the meaning of
this Act, for any person to diagnose the ailments of, or to treat in any
manner the human foot by medical, physical or surgical methods, or to use
the title "podiatric physician" or "podiatrist" or any words or letters which indicate or tend to
indicate to the public that the person so treating or so holding himself or
herself out is a podiatric physician.
B. No person, except as provided in Section 3 of this Act, shall provide
any type of diagnostic and therapeutic medical care services of the human
foot unless under the supervision of a licensed podiatric physician.
C. Persons suitably trained and qualified may render, only under the
direction of a podiatric physician licensed under this Act,
such patient tests and services as diagnostic imaging procedures,
laboratory studies and other appropriate patient services
connected with comprehensive foot care which may be consistent with the
diagnosis and treatment selected by the podiatric physician.
This Section shall apply to podiatric medical care provided in all
settings, including, but not limited to:
long term facilities, mental health facilities, hospitals, medical offices
and public health clinics.
