AI Summary
This bill establishes the Consensual Non-Transplant Donation Regulation Act, creating a comprehensive regulatory framework for non-transplant anatomical donations in Illinois. The legislation requires all non-transplant anatomical donation organizations to obtain a license from the Department of Public Health within two years of the act's implementation. Organizations must apply with detailed information about their operations, including their facilities, services, and personnel. The bill introduces a universal donor consent form that allows donors or their authorized representatives to specify the exact purpose and intended end user for their anatomical donation, with provisions for secondary consent if the primary intended use cannot be fulfilled. The bill mandates strict record-keeping requirements, including maintaining donor records for 10 years, and establishes detailed standards for labeling, packaging, transportation, and final disposition of donated anatomical materials. Licensees must ensure donations are treated with dignity and used only for education or research purposes as specified by the donor. Violations of the act can result in civil penalties, license suspension or revocation, and potential criminal prosecution. The bill also makes conforming amendments to several existing state laws, including the State Finance Act, Vital Records Act, Illinois Vehicle Code, and Illinois Anatomical Gift Act, to integrate the new non-transplant donation regulations into the existing legal framework.
