Summary

Amends the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act.

Provides that the person receiving a mental health evaluation shall share all collateral records with the licensed clinical mental health professional making the certification and shall attest that all collateral records have been provided before the evaluation. Provides that the licensed clinical mental health professional shall attest that the licensed clinical mental health professional has requested, received, reviewed, and considered all of the person's collateral records in making the licensed clinical mental health professional's determination that the person is not a clear and present danger to self or others. Provides that the licensed clinical mental health professional shall identify the types of collateral records received. Requires the licensed clinical mental health professional to make all reasonable attempts to obtain collateral records, and, if no collateral records are obtained, requires the licensed clinical mental health professional to document the efforts used to obtain such collateral records. Provides that the results of the mental health evaluations that are performed on or after the effective date of the amendatory Act shall be transmitted to the Illinois State Police. Defines terms.
