Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the School Code and the Communicable Disease Prevention Act. In a Section of the School Code involving health examinations for children, provides that the Department of Public Health shall adopt rules specifying that testing for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) be included in health examinations. Requires that the parent or guardian of the child be informed that such testing will be undertaken during the health examination unless the parent or guardian declines for his or her child to be tested for HIV. Also requires that the parent or guardian of the child be provided with clear and concise information about HIV testing, including an explanation about HIV infection and the meanings of positive and negative test results. Provides that HIV testing must be incorporated into the child's general health examination procedures and forms, the record of the health examination submitted to the school must indicate only that the child was tested for HIV or not, and that no HIV test result may be indicated in the record of the health examination submitted to the school. Sets forth the revised recommendations of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for HIV testing. Declares to be the public policy of the State that HIV screening be conducted in accordance with the CDC recommendations and that the Department of Public Health develop and administer compliant policies and procedures as soon as possible. Makes other changes. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Provides that the Department of Public Health may establish a separate and distinct schedule for the conduct of health examinations involving tests for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) to adjust for higher risk school age groups, including, but not limited to, older teenage youths.

House Committee Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the contents of the bill as introduced with the following changes. Provides that the Department of Public Health shall adopt rules specifying that testing for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) be included as a required part of the health examination required under the provision, taking into consideration the recommendations of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (instead of requiring HIV testing as a part of health examinations under the provision, unless the parent or guardian of the child declines for his or her child to be tested for HIV). Deletes provisions providing that: (1) the parent or guardian of the child must be informed by the school that such testing must be undertaken during the health examination, unless the parent or guardian declines for his or her child to be tested for HIV; (2) the parent or guardian of the child must be provided with clear and concise information about HIV testing, including an explanation about HIV infection and the meanings of positive and negative test results; (3) informational material must be provided in the languages of the population served by the school; and (4) at the health examination, the parent or guardian and child must have the opportunity to ask questions about and decline the HIV testing. Deletes provisions relating to school health examination records and HIV testing. Provides that the Department of Public Health develop and administer policies and procedures to control and prevent HIV and AIDS, taking into consideration the recommendations of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (instead of administer compliant policies and procedures as soon as possible).
