Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code. Requires the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to establish and operate a case tracking system which shall be designed to collect, maintain, and monitor information on payments made by the Department on behalf of individuals eligible for medical assistance whose case files are marked as "inactive" in the Department's Medicaid Management Information System. Provides that the Department shall use the case tracking system to prevent payments from being made on behalf of an individual who was ineligible for medical assistance due to the person being deceased. Provides that to ensure the case tracking system contains the most up to date information on an individual whose name and case file is entered into the case tracking system, at least once a month the Department shall cross-reference the individual's name, social security number, and any other relevant information belonging to the individual with the death records information maintained by the Department of Public Health's Division of Vital Records. Requires the Department to adopt any rules necessary to implement the case tracking system.
