Short description: 
PROVIDER TERMINATION NOTICE                                                

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Creates the Provider Termination Notification Act. Provides  that      
   a  health  care licensing board that takes an adverse action against a      
   licensed health care professional  or  that  has  reported  to  it  an      
   adverse  action  taken by a hospital or other health care professional      
   review committee against a licensed  health  care  professional  shall      
   notify  any  health  carrier  that  voluntarily provides the licensing      
   board a point of contact to receive information  of  adverse  actions.      
   Provides  that  a  health  carrier  may  limit,  restrict, suspend, or      
   terminate  the  agreement  under  which  the  licensed   health   care      
   professional furnishes health care items and services to participants,      
   beneficiaries, or enrollees of the health carrier.                          
          FISCAL NOTE                                                          
          (Illinois Department of Professional Regulation)                     
          The Department is going to sell a monthly subscription to mail       
          or fax the monthly disciplinary report at a cost of $48 per          
          year. The maximum cost to the agency, assuming that all health       
          carriers requested a mailed copy of the report provided at no        
          charge from the agency, is estimated at $62,400 per year. If         
          all health carriers instead accessed the information from our        
          web site, then there would be no additional financial impact         
          to the agency. In addition, the agency anticipates a maximum         
          cost to mail notification to all health carriers of adverse          
          actions reported by hospitals to be approximately $85,000.
