Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance
20 ILCS 105/4.02from Ch. 23, par. 6104.02

Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Act on the Aging. Provides that services provided, under the program established by the Department on Aging to prevent unnecessary institutionalization of persons age 60 and older in need of long term care or who are established as persons who suffer from Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder, shall be consumer directed and client focused. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Adds reference to:
20 ILCS 105/4.12

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the substantive provisions of the bill with changes. Deletes a provision requiring services provided under the program to be consumer directed and client focused. Provides that by July 1, 2008, the Department's case management program shall be transitioned to a fully integrated care coordinators program. Provides that the program shall incorporate the concepts of client direction and consumer focus and shall take into account the client's needs and preferences. Specifies the duties of the care coordinators under the program. Sets out details of the care coordinators' duties under the program and authorizes the care coordinators to use discretion in carrying out the duties. Provides for reimbursement of the care coordination units under the program. Requires the Department to develop a rate structure, by January 1, 2008, in collaboration with care coordination units and advocates for care recipients and reevaluate the rate structure annually thereafter to determine if it reflects the current costs of doing business. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
Adds reference to:
320 ILCS 42/25

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the substantive provisions of the bill, as amended by Senate amendment one, with changes. Defines "comprehensive care coordination" under the program and sets out details of the Department's comprehensive care coordination duties under the program (instead of setting out the duties of care coordinators under the program). Provides that a comprehensive assessment shall be performed using a holistic tool identified by the Department and supported by a central electronic care planning system (instead of being identified by the Department only). Requires that the comprehensive assessment determine the level of physical, functional, cognitive, psycho-social, financial, and social needs of the client. Requires the Department to provide guidelines for determining conditions under which a comprehensive assessment shall be performed (in addition to guidelines for determining the activities of care coordination offered to each care recipient). Provides that care plans shall include all needs identified by the assessment and all services needed by the client regardless of the funding source. Amends the Older Adult Services Act. Provides that the statewide system of holistic comprehensive case management shall evaluate the physical, psycho-social, and social needs of older adults in addition to the other needs already assessed by the system. Replaces the term "comprehensive case management" with "comprehensive care coordination". Includes the coordination and monitoring of formal and family service delivery in the definition of "comprehensive care coordination" (instead of differentiating between services based on the source of funding). Makes other changes. Effective immediately.

House Amendment No. 1
Provides that the Department on Aging's care coordination program shall be voluntary and require the written consent of the client. Provides that implementation of a care plan shall require the written informed consent of the client, who shall retain the right to refuse any or all portions of the care plan and provides that information about the program, including an explanation of its purpose, policies and procedures, and a description of available services that may be offered, will be provided to the client. Replaces the definition of comprehensive care coordination for purposes of the fully integrated care coordination program. Provides that the Department shall provide, by administrative rule, policies and procedures for obtaining the written, informed consent of the client for conducting a comprehensive assessment on that client. Provides that the Department shall establish policies and procedures for investigating and resolving complaints that may be filed by clients or their representatives regarding assessments or care coordination.

Requires long term care facilities and assisted living or shared housing establishments to complete an annual Consumer Choice Information Report and file it electronically with the Office of State Long Term Care Ombudsman. Requires each facility to retain a copy of the current Consumer Choice Information Report for public inspection. Provides that assisted living and shared housing establishments are subject to these provisions beginning 6 months after the effective date of this amendatory Act.
