§ 5-37002.
Legislative declaration. The General Assembly recognizes that adequate health care is a fundamental right of the people of the State of Illinois; that there should be no distinction in the availability of quality health care based upon one's inability to pay; that the alarming acceleration of health care costs often results in calamitous financial burdens for the unfortunate families which suffer major illnesses or injuries; and that there exists an urgent need for substantial improvement in the State's ability to provide health care services to the indigent in a proficient and compassionate manner. Therefore, it is the intent of the General Assembly to establish efficient and economical systems of public health care delivery in densely populated counties throughout the State.
