SB2069 Enrolled LRB9212756NTpk
AN ACT relating to higher education institutions.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The University of Illinois Hospital Act is
amended by changing Section 5 as follows:
(110 ILCS 330/5) (from Ch. 23, par. 1375)
Sec. 5. The University may establish and collect charges
for hospital services rendered in the University of Illinois
Hospital or in connection with a University health care
program. However, with respect to health care professional
services rendered in connection with a University health care
program at the University of Illinois Hospital or elsewhere
by the Doctors of Medicine, the Doctors of Dentistry, or
other health care professionals who are members of the
University faculty, charges for such professional services
shall not be established or collected by the University or
the University of Illinois Hospital but may be by said
members of said faculty who render such services under a plan
or plans organized and administered by them. All such charges
shall be deposited in a special fund or funds in the treasury
of the University. The billing, collecting and disbursing of
any such fund shall remain exclusively under the supervision
and control of such faculty under a plan or plans established
by them for the general benefit and support of University
programs and activities related to the health professions,
provided no charges may be made or collected until such plan
has been approved by the University. However, no person shall
make or collect a personal or professional charge for his own
account for treating, caring for or nursing a patient in the
University of Illinois Hospital (other than health care
professional services provided at the University of Illinois
Hospital by non-salaried adjunct University faculty who are
licensed dentists or physicians licensed to practice medicine
in all its branches members) or in connection with a
University health care program. Nothing herein shall prevent
the University from approving a plan under which any such
fund in the University treasury may be utilized in paying the
University salaries of such faculty members, or from
assisting in the billing and collection of professional
charges if all University costs in connection therewith are
paid from the charges so collected.
