A second bipartisan health care bill which I sponsored has passed a House committee. House Bill 1270 helps health care professionals have a volunteer status on their license without a fee. The bill passed committee 15-0 and now goes to the full House for consideration.
All retired healthcare professionals in Illinois, including physicians, nurses, dentists, APNs, PAs, optometrists, and many others, would be able to continue to practice as volunteers for free – no licensing fees!
