Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

Any health care provider who relies in good faith upon any information provided through the ILHIE in his, her, or its treatment of a patient shall be immune from criminal or civil liability or professional discipline arising from any damages caused by such good faith reliance. This immunity does not apply to acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or reckless, wanton, or intentional misconduct. Notwithstanding this provision, the Office does not waive any immunities provided under State or federal law.
