Illinois General Assembly - Bill Status for SB 1607

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. Before issuing a prescription for a Schedule II, III, IV, or V controlled substance, a prescriber or his or her designee shall access the prescription monitoring program to determine compliance with the pharmacy and medication shopping provisions of the Act. Provides that within one year of the effective date of the bill, the Department shall adopt rules requiring all Electronic Health Records Systems to interface with the Prescription Monitoring Program application program on or before January 1, 2021 to ensure that all providers have access to specific patient records during the treatment of their patients. These rules shall also address the electronic integration of pharmacy records with the Prescription Monitoring Program to allow for faster transmission of the information required under the Act. Provides that the Department shall establish actions to be taken if a prescriber's Electronic Health Records System does not effectively interface with the Prescription Monitoring Program within the required timeline. Provides that the Department of Human Services, in consultation with the Advisory Committee, shall adopt rules allowing licensed prescribers or pharmacists who have registered to access the Prescription Monitoring Program to authorize a designee to consult the Prescription Monitoring Program on their behalf. The rules shall include reasonable parameters concerning a practitioner's authority to authorize a designee, and the eligibility of a person to be selected as a designee.

Restores language of the law that when a person has been identified as having 3 or more prescribers or 3 or more pharmacies, or both, that do not utilize a common electronic file for controlled substances within the course of a continuous 30-day period, the Prescription Monitoring Program may (rather than shall) issue an unsolicited report to the prescribers, dispensers, and their designees informing them of the potential medication shopping.

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. Reinserts the provisions of the bill as amended by Senate Amendments Nos. 1 and 2. Deletes provision that a prescriber who receives the report from the Prescription Monitoring Program concerning a person who has been identified as having 3 or more prescribers or 3 or more pharmacies, or both, either personally or through an agent at his or her place of practice, shall be prohibited from issuing a controlled substance to that same person unless the prescriber signs a statement on the prescription acknowledging receipt of the report. Deletes that if a pharmacy or pharmacist receives a prescription for a person he or she knows or should know to be the subject of the report, and the prescriber fails to provide the required acknowledgement, the pharmacy or pharmacist must contact the prescriber and obtain a signature on the acknowledgement before filling the prescription. Provides that if an unsolicited report is issued to a prescriber or prescribers, then the report must also be sent to the applicable dispensing pharmacy. Restores provision that nothing in this provision shall be construed to create a requirement that any prescriber, dispenser, or pharmacist report any patient activity, or prescribe or refuse to prescribe or dispense any medications. Also provides that a prescriber who prescribes a Schedule II, III, IV, or V controlled substance in the course of oncology treatment, a condition associated with oncology, or hospice care is exempt from having to check the Prescription Monitoring Program prior to prescribing the controlled substance.

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Act. Provides that the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority shall coordinate statewide violence prevention efforts and assist in the implementation of trauma recovery centers and analyze trauma recovery services. Provides that the Authority shall develop, publish, and facilitate the implementation of a 4-year statewide violence prevention plan, which shall incorporate public health, public safety, victim services, and trauma recovery centers and services. Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Provides that the court may give credit toward the fulfillment of community service hours for participation in activities and treatment as determined by court services for driving while driver's license, permit or privilege to operate a motor vehicle is suspended or revoked. Amends the Cannabis Control Act, Illinois Controlled Substances Act, and the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act concerning first-time probation. Provides that the court may give credit toward the fulfillment of community service hours for participation in activities and treatment as determined by court services. Amends the Unified Code of Corrections by adding to the mandatory conditions of release on parole or mandatory supervised release that except for first degree murder, a Class X felony, or a Class 1 felony violation of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, or any felony that requires registration as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration Act, in accordance with the findings of a validated risk assessment conducted by the Department of Corrections prior to release that the person being released is at a low risk to recidivate, then he or she shall be subject to low level supervision and required to check in with the supervising officer via phone or other electronic means exclusive of placement on electronic detention unless required by law or ordered and approved by the Prisoner Review Board; and in accordance with the findings of a validated risk assessment conducted by the Department of Corrections prior to release that the person being released is at a moderate or high risk to recidivate, be subject to high level supervision exclusive of placement on electronic detention unless required by law or ordered and approved by the Prisoner Review Board. Provides that the court may give credit toward the fulfillment of community service hours for participation in activities and treatment as determined by court services as a condition of probation, conditional discharge, the Offender Initiative Program, or the Second Chance Probation Program. Amends the Crime Victims Compensation Act. Adds a provision setting forth what constitutes cooperation by an applicant victim under 18 years of age. Makes other technical changes. Effective immediately.

Amends the Unified Code of Corrections by adding to the mandatory conditions of release on parole or mandatory supervised release that except for first degree murder, a forcible felony, any felony that requires registration as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration Act, or a Class X felony or Class 1 felony that is not a violation under the Cannabis Control Act, the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act (rather than except for first degree murder, a Class X felony, or a Class 1 felony violation of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, or any felony that requires registration as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration Act) and in accordance with the findings of a validated risk assessment conducted by the Department of Corrections prior to release that the person being released is at a low risk to recidivate, then he or she shall be subject to low level supervision and required to check in with the supervising officer via phone or other electronic means exclusive of placement on electronic detention unless required by law or ordered and approved by the Prisoner Review Board and if found to be at a moderate or high risk to recidivate shall be subject to high level supervision. Provides that release planning shall include information about community-based employment services and employment service programs available for persons with prior arrest or criminal convictions.
