---|
20 | 20 | | 9 (1) In 2023, Illinois' Medicaid program statistics |

71 | 71 | | 1 concerns. |
---|
72 | 72 | | 2 (4) Parents and caregivers are frequently not informed |
---|
73 | 73 | | 3 of the FDA-documented risks associated with the |
---|
74 | 74 | | 4 psychotropics being prescribed, including the pediatric |
---|
75 | 75 | | 5 risks. |
---|
76 | 76 | | 6 (5) Section 208.20 of Title 21 of the United States |
---|
77 | 77 | | 7 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) establishes the |
---|
78 | 78 | | 8 requirement for FDA Medication Guides to provide easily |

79 | 79 | | 9 understandable information about the risks and side |
---|
80 | 80 | | 10 effects of prescription drugs for the average consumer, |
---|
81 | 81 | | 11 including parents and caregivers. According to federal |
---|
82 | 82 | | 12 regulations, Medication Guides must: |
---|
83 | 83 | | 13 (A) Detail "the particular serious and significant |
---|
84 | 84 | | 14 public health concern that has created the need for |
---|
85 | 85 | | 15 the Medication Guide". |
---|
86 | 86 | | 16 (B) Note any known "pediatric risks". |
---|
87 | 87 | | 17 (C) Include the risk of "patients developing |
---|
88 | 88 | | 18 dependence on the drug product". |

92 | 92 | | 22 (F) "Not be promotional in tone or content". |

107 | 107 | | 1 the psychotropic drug being prescribed. |
---|
108 | 108 | | 2 (7) Medicaid is a state and federally funded program |
---|
109 | 109 | | 3 that provides essential healthcare services to vulnerable |
---|
110 | 110 | | 4 populations, including children and adolescents. It should |
---|
111 | 111 | | 5 be required to distribute the FDA Medication Guides to |
---|
112 | 112 | | 6 ensure recipients and their guardians are fully informed |
---|
113 | 113 | | 7 of the risks and potential adverse effects of psychotropic |
---|
114 | 114 | | 8 medications, thereby supporting informed consent and |
---|
115 | 115 | | 9 promoting patient safety. |
---|
116 | 116 | | 10 (8) A reliable system for parents and caregivers to |
---|
117 | 117 | | 11 report adverse drug reactions to psychotropic drugs is |
---|
118 | 118 | | 12 essential to help Medicaid agencies and legislators |
---|
119 | 119 | | 13 monitor and assess the frequency, severity, and impact of |
---|
120 | 120 | | 14 such reactions within the public sector. |
---|
121 | 121 | | 15 (9) The absence of an accessible, Medicaid-funded |
---|
122 | 122 | | 16 reporting mechanism for drug side effects limits the |
---|
123 | 123 | | 17 ability to identify and address these risks effectively, |
---|
124 | 124 | | 18 compromising the safety of children and adolescents. |
---|
125 | 125 | | 19 (10) Medicaid is the primary payer for psychotropic |
---|
126 | 126 | | 20 medications prescribed to children and adolescents in the |
---|
127 | 127 | | 21 public sector, including for off-label use in children as |
---|
128 | 128 | | 22 young as 0-5 years, making it directly responsible for |
---|
129 | 129 | | 23 ensuring the safety and monitoring of these prescriptions. |
---|
130 | 130 | | 24 (11) Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) to psychotropic |
---|
131 | 131 | | 25 medications can have significant physical, psychological, |
---|
132 | 132 | | 26 and developmental impacts on children, requiring timely |

---|
144 | 144 | | 2 (12) The establishment of an online ADR reporting |
---|
145 | 145 | | 3 system would enable the State's Medicaid program to |
---|
146 | 146 | | 4 fulfill its duty of care by providing a mechanism to |
---|
147 | 147 | | 5 collect critical safety data, support evidence-based |
---|
148 | 148 | | 6 decision-making, and comply with its responsibility to |
---|
149 | 149 | | 7 protect public health. |
---|
150 | 150 | | 8 (13) Funding this reporting system aligns with the |
---|
151 | 151 | | 9 State's Medicaid program's obligations under federal law |
---|
152 | 152 | | 10 to monitor and improve the quality of care provided to its |
---|
153 | 153 | | 11 beneficiaries, especially vulnerable pediatric |
---|
154 | 154 | | 12 populations, and would facilitate oversight and |

---|
156 | 156 | | 14 psychotropic medications. |

157 | 157 | | 15 (14) The provisions of this Act are established to |
