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.

Sec. 5-30a. Exemptions from managed care enrollment; children.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Department shall not require any of the following children to enroll in or transition to the State's managed care medical assistance program:

(1) Children who are authorized by the Department to

receive in-home shift nursing services as required by the federal Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) provisions under 42 CFR 441.50 et seq.

(2) Children made eligible for medical assistance

through any home and community-based services waiver program for medically fragile and technology dependent children authorized under Section 1915(c) of the Social Security Act.

Any children who meet the criteria under paragraph (1) or (2) and who are enrolled in the State's managed care medical assistance program on or before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 100th General Assembly shall be given the option to disenroll from the State's managed care medical assistance program and receive medical assistance coverage under the State's traditional fee-for-service program.
