Instead provides that the interagency agreement shall set criteria to identify children whose cases will be presented to the Interagency Children's Behavioral Health Services Team for prioritized review.

Further amends the Children and Family Services Act. In a provision requiring the Department of Children and Family Services to adopt rules to establish a process for all licensed residential providers in Illinois to submit data, if they contract or receive reimbursement for children's mental health, substance use, and developmental disability services, provides that all information collected, shared, or stored pursuant to that provision shall be handled in accordance with all State and federal privacy laws and accompanying regulations and rules, including without limitation the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality Act.

In provisions listing the Department's duties under the program, removes the duty to develop a statewide adoption awareness campaign aimed at pregnant teenagers.
