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.

Sec. 4.5. Provisional license.

Every licensed hospice program in operation on the effective date of this Act that does not meet all of the requirements for a comprehensive hospice program or a volunteer hospice program as set forth in this Act shall be deemed to hold a provisional license to continue that operation on and after that date.  The provisional license shall remain in effect for one year after the effective date of this Act or until the Department issues a regular license under Section 4, whichever is earlier.  The Department may coordinate the issuance of a regular hospice program  license under Section 4 with the renewal date of the license that is in effect on the effective date of this Act.
