PRENATAL SYPHILIS-TESTING
Amends the Prenatal Syphilis Act. Provides that every appropriate health care professional (rather than physician or other person) attending in a professional capacity a pregnant woman in Illinois shall test every pregnant person (rather than take or cause to be taken a sample of blood of such woman) at the time of the first examination and shall perform a second test (rather than shall take or cause to be taken a second sample of blood) during the third trimester of pregnancy, between 27 through 32 weeks of gestation. Deletes certain references to serological tests. Provides that reports of births and still births shall be made by appropriate health care professionals (rather than by physicians or other persons).
