Illinois General Assembly - Bill Status for SB 2395

Amends the Illinois Dental Practice Act. Provides that beginning with the renewal period of 2006 and in order to obtain relevant information regarding the availability of dental services within the State, the Department shall require completion of a census as part of the renewal process. Creates a temporary dentistry or dental hygiene license for applicants who are pending licensure under the Act and who (i) hold an active, unencumbered license in good standing in another jurisdiction and (ii) are applying due to a natural disaster or catastrophic event. Allows a surviving spouse, personal representative of an estate, or other authorized fiduciary to employ, contract with, or otherwise make arrangements for a licensed dentist or dentists to continue to operate a dental practice under the name of a deceased or incapacitated dentist for a maximum time period of one year or until the practice is sold, whichever occurs first. Provides that regardless of whether a dental laboratory manufactures a dental appliance or has it manufactured by a subcontractor, the laboratory must provide to the prescribing dentist the (i) location where the work was done and (ii) source and original location where the materials were obtained. Effective immediately.

Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill with the following changes. Removes the provision requiring the Department to mandate the completion of a census as part of the renewal process and instead provides that the Department may require completion of a census by all licensed dentists in order to obtain relevant information regarding the availability of dental services within the State. Replaces the Section concerning the temporary licensure of applicants from other jurisdictions with a Section concerning the temporary authorization of applicants from other jurisdictions. Provides that a person holding an active, unencumbered license in good standing in another jurisdiction who applies for a license under the Illinois Dental Practice Act due to a natural disaster or catastrophic event in another jurisdiction may be temporarily authorized to practice dentistry or dental hygiene under the supervision of a licensed dentist, pending the issuance of the license. Removes the Section concerning the death or disability of a dentist. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
