   305 ILCS 5/5-11           from Ch. 23, par. 5-11                            

        Amends the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public  Aid      
   Code.  In provisions authorizing the Department of Public Aid to enter      
   into  contracts  with public or private organizations to act for it in      
   supplying medical services  to  those  eligible  under  this  Article,      
   provides  that  any  contracts for the provision of emergency services      
   shall provide that emergency services are those health  care  services      
   for a medical condition of recent onset and severity that would lead a      
   prudent  lay  person,  possessing an average knowledge of medicine and      
   health, to believe that emergent medical care is required.    Provides      
   that  determination  of  levels of care by such organizations shall be      
   based upon the symptoms and condition  of  the  recipient  at  initial      
   examination  by  the physician and not upon the final determination of      
   the recipient's actual medical condition.
