Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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.

(20 ILCS 1805/52) (from Ch. 129, par. 220.52)
Sec. 52. Injured personnel or personnel with a disability; treatment; compensation. Officers, warrant officers, or enlisted personnel of the Illinois National Guard who may be injured in any way, including without limitation through illness, while on duty and lawfully performing the same, are entitled to be treated by an officer of the medical or dental department detailed by the Adjutant General, or at the nearest appropriate medical treatment facility if such an officer is not detailed. Officers, warrant officers, or enlisted personnel of the
Illinois National Guard who may be wounded or
disabled in any way, while on duty and lawfully performing the same, so
as to prevent their working at their profession, trade, or other
occupation from which they gain their living, are entitled to be treated
by an officer of the medical or dental department detailed by the
Adjutant General, or at the nearest appropriate medical treatment facility if such an officer is not detailed, and, as long as the Illinois National Guard has not
been called into federal service, are entitled to all privileges due
them as State employees under the "Workers' Compensation Act", approved
July 9, 1951, as now or hereafter amended, and the "Workers'
Occupational Diseases Act", approved July 9, 1951, as now or hereafter
amended. For purposes of this Section, injured, wounded, or disabled "while on duty and lawfully performing the same" means incurring an injury, wound, or disability while in a State military status pursuant to orders of the Commander-in-Chief, except when the injury, wound, or disability is caused by the officer's, warrant officer's, or enlisted personnel's own misconduct.
