Sec. 10. Mental health program; reciprocal agreement. The mental health pilot project created under Public Act 100-12 shall be a permanent program. Under the program, the receiving agency may accept the admission of an Iowa resident from the Eastern Iowa Mental Health Region who is a person subject to involuntary admission on an inpatient basis under an order issued by an Iowa court for treatment at a receiving agency in this State for which the Iowa court shall have jurisdiction over the recipient while committed to a receiving agency in this State as provided under Section 331.910 of the Iowa Code.

The program shall also provide that a resident of Rock Island County, Illinois who is a person subject to involuntary admission on an inpatient basis under an order issued by a court of this State for treatment at a receiving agency in this State may receive inpatient treatment in the sending state. The sending state or receiving agency shall provide mental health services to the recipient for the duration of the court order and shall return the recipient to his or her state of legal residence upon discharge.

If a recipient has to enter a State-operated facility, the recipient must be returned to his or her state of legal residence.
