Registry fees. The Department of Public Health shall levy a fee for each registrant under Sections 18.05 through 18.5. A $40 fee shall be charged for registering with the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange. However, this fee shall be waived for all adopted or surrendered persons, adoptive parents, legal guardians, birth parents, and birth siblings who complete a Medical Information Exchange Questionnaire at the time of registration and authorize its release to specified registered parties, and for adoptive parents registering within 12 months of the finalization of the adoption. All persons who were registered with the Illinois Adoption Registry prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1999 and who wish to update their registration may do so without charge. No charge of any kind shall be made for the withdrawal of any form provided in Section 18.2.
