Illinois Code § 3-113

§ 3-113.

(a) The license granted to the transferee shall be subject to the plan of correction submitted by the previous owner and approved by the Department and any conditions contained in a conditional license issued to the previous owner. If there are outstanding violations and no approved plan of correction has been implemented, the Department may issue a conditional license and plan of correction as provided in Sections 3-311 through 3-317. The license granted to a transferee for a facility that is in receivership shall be subject to any contractual obligations assumed by a grantee under the Equity in Long-term Care Quality Act and to the plan submitted by the receiver for continuing and increasing adherence to best practices in providing high-quality nursing home care, unless the grant is repaid, under conditions to be determined by rule by the Department in its administration of the Equity in Long-term Care Quality Act. (b) If the Department finds that an entity failed to follow an accepted transition plan and ensure residents are provided adequate care during the change of ownership process, and finds actual harm to a resident, the Department shall establish a high-risk designation pursuant to paragraph (9) of Section 3-305. The Department shall issue a violation to the entity that failed to carry out their responsibility under the transition plan that caused the violation. As described in this Section, the change of ownership process shall begin upon submission of the transition plan to 30 days after the transfer of the facility. (Source: P.A. 103-776, eff. 1-1-25.)
