Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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.
(65 ILCS 5/11-6-12) Sec. 11-6-12. Reimbursement for lift-assist services. (a) As used in this Section, "lift-assist service" means a response to an assisted living facility or nursing home facility by personnel of a fire department, an emergency response unit, or a unit of another public safety department providing automatic or mutual aid to a municipality, in order to lift a patient or other individual from the individual's current position to a desired position. "Lift-assist service" does not include lifting a patient or other individual during a response to a request for transportation to a health care facility such as a hospital or emergency room. (b) Municipalities may fix, charge, and collect reasonable fees from an assisted living facility or nursing home facility for every lift-assist service after the 6th lift assist service provided to that assisted living facility or nursing home facility that year rendered by a municipal fire department, firefighter, emergency response unit, or public safety employee of a municipal department in connection with providing lift-assist services to a patient or other individual. The fees may not exceed the actual personnel and equipment costs for all services rendered by the municipality in connection with providing lift-assist services to a patient or other individual.(Source: P.A. 104-57, eff. 1-1-26.) |
