Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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.
(210 ILCS 85/4) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 145)
Sec. 4.
No person shall establish a hospital without first obtaining a
permit from the Department and no person shall open, conduct, operate, or
maintain a hospital without first obtaining a license from the Department.
Nothing in this Act shall be construed to impair or abridge the power of
municipalities to license and regulate hospitals, provided that the
municipal ordinance substantially complies with the minimum standards and
regulations developed by the Department pursuant to the provisions of this
Act. Such compliance shall be determined by the Department subject to
review as provided in Section 13 of this Act. Section 13 of this Act
shall also be applicable to the judicial review of final administrative
decisions of the regulatory agency of the municipality. Any municipality
having an ordinance licensing and regulating hospitals which provides for
minimum standards and regulations substantially in compliance with those
developed pursuant to this Act shall make such periodic reports to the
Department as the Department deems necessary. This report shall include a
list of hospitals meeting standards substantially equivalent to those
promulgated by the Department under this Act, and upon the receipt of such
report the Department may then issue a license to such hospital.
