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.
(225 ILCS 95/16) (from Ch. 111, par. 4616)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2028)
Sec. 16. Expiration; renewal. The expiration date and renewal period for
each license
issued under this Act shall be set by rule. Renewal shall be conditioned
on paying the required fee and by meeting such other requirements as may be
established by rule. The certification as a physician assistant by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants or an equivalent successor agency is not required for renewal of a license under this Act.
Any physician assistant who has permitted his or her license to expire or
who
has had his or her license on inactive status may have the
license restored by
making application to the Department and filing proof acceptable to the
Department of his or her fitness to have the license restored,
and by paying the
required fees. Proof of fitness may include sworn evidence certifying
to active lawful practice in another jurisdiction.
If the physician assistant has not maintained an active practice in another
jurisdiction satisfactory to the Department,
the Department shall determine, by an evaluation program established by
rule, his or her fitness for restoration of the license and
shall establish
procedures and requirements for such restoration.
However, any physician assistant whose license expired while he or she
was (1)
in federal service on active duty with the Armed Forces of the United
States, or the State Militia called into service or training, or (2) in
training or education under the supervision of the United States
preliminary to induction into the military service, may have the
license
restored without paying any lapsed renewal fees if within 2 years after
honorable termination of such service, training, or education he or she
furnishes
the Department with satisfactory evidence to the effect that he or she has
been so
engaged and that his or her service, training, or education has been so
terminated.
