Amends the Hospital Licensing Act. Makes changes in connection with required notification of emergency responders (paramedics, firefighters, police officers, and others) who have provided or are about to provide emergency care or life support services to a patient who has been diagnosed as having a reportable infectious disease (instead of a dangerous communicable or infectious disease). Adds persons who are entitled to notice and makes other changes with respect to designation of affected persons. Requires that notification letters be sent within 48 (instead of 72) hours after a confirmed diagnosis of an infectious disease. Deletes language limiting the requirement to send notification in the case of a confirmed diagnosis of AIDS. Deletes language imposing different requirements according to a municipality's population. Deletes language providing that a hospital may, in its discretion, take any measures in addition to those required in these provisions to notify police officers, firefighters, emergency medical technicians, and ambulance personnel of possible exposure to any communicable disease. Provides that certain provisions of the federal Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Extension Act of 2009 (P.L. 111-87) concerning notification of possible exposure to infectious diseases apply to these provisions of the Hospital Licensing Act. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement by the State.
