Provides that the Department shall not establish or enforce any rule, procedure, or contract term that reduces, limits or restricts reimbursement to less than 100% of the reasonable cost for any object expenses, service activities, or administrative costs described in the amendatory Act. Provides that to ensure provider agencies have access to cash reserves for operations in the face of rising costs and increased expenses, provider agencies shall be allowed to retain all moneys received in excess of actual reimbursable costs so long as the provider agency invests the excess revenue in, and uses the excess revenue for: (1) direct service, (2) object expenses, (3) and other states purposes. Provides that the use of excess revenue shall be subject to review and audit consistent with the Department's certified audits, cost reports, and desk review procedures in the usual course.
