HOSPITAL & PHYSICIAN LIENS                                                 

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the  Hospital  Lien  Act  and  the  Physicians  Lien  Act.      
   Provides  that  no verdict, judgment, award, settlement, or compromise      
   secured by or on behalf of an injured person may be  satisfied  unless      
   written  notice  has  been  given  to  the  hospital  or physician who      
   provided care to the injured  person.   Provides  that  the  physician      
   shall  have  30 days to perfect and satisfy a lien.  Replaces existing      
   language regarding the attaching of the lien with  language  providing      
   that  from  the time the lien notice is served, the lien of a hospital      
   or physician attaches to any verdict, judgment, award, settlement,  or      
   compromise  secured  by  or on behalf of the injured person.  Provides      
   that the lien shall be  satisfied  before  the  establishment  of  any      
   annuity  or  other  periodic  plan for payments to the injured person.      
   Makes other changes.
