Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance
210 ILCS 76/1

Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Community Benefits Act. Makes a technical change in a Section concerning the short title.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes reference to:
210 ILCS 76/1
Adds reference to:
305 ILCS 5/5-5.5b new
405 ILCS 30/4.8 new

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Public Aid Code. Provides that because the General Assembly finds that there is a need to make changes to the administration of services provided by State and local governments in order to maximize federal financial participation, the Department of Healthcare and Family Services shall create all vouchers for long term care facilities and developmentally disabled care facilities for dates of service in November and December 2010 and shall, no later than December 15, 2010, submit these vouchers to the Comptroller for payment. Further provides that after the effective date of this amendatory Act, community Medicaid mental health services provided by community-based providers shall no longer be included in contracts with the Department of Human Services; instead, community Medicaid mental health services provided by a community-based provider must be billed directly to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services and must be separate from contracts between the Department of Human Services and community-based providers for all other mental health services. Contains provisions concerning the identification of existing grants that can be converted to Medicaid fee-for-service in order to secure federal revenue; third-party liability recoveries; CTA transportation to services for Medicaid enrollees; the acceleration of hospital-based payments; and other matters. Amends the Community Services Act. Provides that after the effective date of this amendatory Act, community Medicaid mental health services provided by community-based providers shall no longer be included in contracts with the Department of Human Services; instead, community Medicaid mental health services provided by a community-based provider must be billed directly to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services and must be separate from contracts between the Department of Human Services and community-based providers for all other mental health services. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
Deletes reference to:
305 ILCS 5/5.5b new
Adds reference to:
305 ILCS 5/12-4.40 new

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts similar provisions, but with the following changes: Amends the Administration Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code (rather than the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code) to provide that the Department of Healthcare and Family Services shall create all vouchers for long term care facilities and developmentally disabled care facilities for dates of service in November and December 2010 and shall, no later than December 15, 2010, submit these vouchers to the Comptroller for payment. Further provides that the Department of Healthcare and Family Services shall work to identify existing programs pending qualifying services that can be converted in an economically feasible manner to Medicaid in order to secure federal financial revenue (rather than, shall work with DCFS to identify all existing grants that can be converted to Medicaid fee-for-service in order to secure federal financial revenue). In relation to third party liability recoveries, provides that a vendor contracted to support the Department in coordinating benefits for Medicaid enrollees, shall be paid a percentage of actual cash recovered (rather than, a percentage of the recovered funds) when practical and subject to federal law. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Provides that the Department of Healthcare and Family Services shall create all vouchers for long term care facilities and developmentally disabled care facilities for dates of service in the month (rather than in November and December 2010) in which the enhanced federal matching percentage originally set forth in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) expires and for dates of service in the month prior to that month and shall, no later than the 15th of the month (rather than December 15, 2010) in which the enhanced federal matching percentage expires, submit these vouchers to the Comptroller for payment. Makes similar changes regarding the Department of Human Services duty to create documentation for State-operated developmentally disabled care facilities.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that to the extent practicable and permissible under federal law, the Department of Healthcare and Family Services shall create all vouchers for long term care facilities and developmentally disabled care facilities for dates of service in the month in which the enhanced federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP) (rather than the enhanced federal matching percentage) originally set forth in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) expires and for dates of service in the month prior to that month and shall, no later than the 15th of the month in which the enhanced FMAP (rather than the enhanced federal matching percentage) expires, submit these vouchers to the Comptroller for payment. Makes similar changes regarding the Department of Human Services duty to create documentation for State-operated developmentally disabled care facilities. Provides that no later than July 1, 2011, community Medicaid mental health services provided by a community-based provider must be billed directly to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services. Provides that effective January 1, 2011 (rather than after the effective date of this amendatory Act), community Medicaid mental health services provided by community-based providers shall no longer be included in contracts with the Department of Human Services. Eliminates language concerning CTA transportation to Medicaid enrollees. Provides that the Department of Healthcare and Family Services shall, by the 10th day of the month in which enhanced FMAP originally set forth in the ARRA expires, (rather than December 20, 2010) create vouchers for all State fiscal year 2011 hospital payments exempt from the prompt payment requirements of the ARRA; and the Department shall submit these vouchers to the Comptroller for payment (rather than shall, no later than December 15, 2010, submit these vouchers to the Comptroller for payment). Eliminates language requiring the implementation of the provisions concerning Medicaid revenue maximization by December 15, 2010. Redefines "community Medicaid mental health services" and eliminates the definition for "CTA". Effective immediately.
