Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(305 ILCS 5/15-6) (from Ch. 23, par. 15-6)

Sec. 15-6.

Annual audit.

(a) Within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of each county
hospital, the Illinois Department shall conduct an annual audit of the Fund
to determine that amounts received from or paid to county providers were correct.
If such an audit identifies amounts that a county provider
should not have been
required to pay but did pay, a county provider should have
been required to pay
but did not pay, a county provider should not have received
but did receive, or a
county provider should have received but did not receive, the
Illinois Department
shall:

(1) Make required payments to any such county

provider, or

(2) Take action to recover required amounts from any

such county provider, including recoupment from future payments.

(b) Amounts recovered from a county provider shall be
credited to the Fund.  A
county provider is entitled to recover amounts paid to the
Illinois Department
into the Fund and to receive refunds and payment from the Illinois
Department for payments that should have been paid from the Fund only to
the extent that monies are available in the Fund.
