Provides that the Program may issue grants for the purpose of the University of Illinois' INHS Medical Entomology Program maintaining a passive tick and tick-borne pathogen surveillance program, based on ticks contributed by the Illinois public, and including tick identifications and disease-agent testing of a subset of identified ticks; compiling evidence and conducting research on tick bite prevention and risk of tick and tick-borne pathogen exposure; and providing evidence, results, and analysis and insight from both the passive surveillance program, on tick species and tick-borne disease-agent distributions and diversity in the State, and its related research on tick bite exposure and prevention, to support the Lyme Disease Innovation Program objectives. Requires the University of Illinois' Prairie Research Institute to be paid for the INHS Medical Entomology Program's operation of a passive tick surveillance and research program from moneys deposited into the Fund or from other appropriations.
