Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance

305 ILCS 5/5-1.2

Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Public Aid Code. In provisions concerning Medicaid recipient eligibility verification, provides that effective July 1, 2007, all changes in the status of Medicaid recipients residing in Illinois nursing facilities after initial eligibility for Medicaid has been established shall be reported by the nursing facilities to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services using the Recipient Eligibility Verification system. Provides that all changes reported using the Recipient Eligibility Verification system shall be deemed valid and shall be used as the basis for determining future eligibility for Medicaid until such time as any review or audit conducted by the Department shall establish that the information is incorrect. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces the bill's amendatory changes to the Illinois Public Aid Code with respect to Medicaid recipient eligibility verification. Provides that effective October 1 (instead of July 1), 2007, all changes in status of Medicaid recipients residing in Illinois nursing facilities after initial eligibility for Medicaid has been established shall be reported to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services, using an Internet-based electronic data interchange system (instead of the Recipient Eligibility Verification system), by the nursing facilities, except for those changes made by personnel of the Department. Provides that changes reported using the Internet-based electronic data interchange system shall be deemed valid and shall be used as the basis for future Medicaid payments (instead of for determining future eligibility for Medicaid) unless Department approval of the transaction is required, or until such time as any review or audit conducted by the State establishes that the information is incorrect.
