Summary
Refers to the amendatory Act as Marlen's Law. Amends the University of Illinois Hospital Act and the Hospital Licensing Act. Requires hospitals organized or licensed under the Acts to make reasonable efforts to verify that when an infant who is less than 3 months of age is admitted to such a hospital with visible signs of abuse or neglect and was not born at the hospital at least one individual accompanying the infant is the infant's parent or guardian or permitted by the infant's parent or guardian to accompany the infant. Provides that if the hospital is unable to make such a verification, then each individual accompanying the infant must provide a sample of his or her DNA and information sufficient to identify the individual, which shall be kept on file at the hospital. Effective immediately.
