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 66/20-22) Sec. 20-22. Implementation plan for cost reporting. (a) For the purpose of understanding behavioral health services cost structures and their impact on the Illinois Medical Assistance Program, the Department shall engage stakeholders to develop a plan for the regular collection of cost reporting for all entity-based providers of behavioral health services reimbursed under the Rehabilitation or Prevention authorities of the Illinois Medicaid State Plan. Data shall be used to inform on the effectiveness and efficiency of Illinois Medicaid rates. The plan at minimum should consider the following: (1) alignment with certified community behavioral |
| health clinic requirements, standards, policies, and procedures;
|
|
(2) inclusion of prospective costs to measure what is
|
| needed to increase services and capacity;
|
|
(3) consideration of differences in collection and
|
| policies based on the size of providers;
|
|
(4) consideration of additional administrative time
|
|
(5) goals, purposes, and usage of data collected from
|
|
(6) inclusion of qualitative data in addition to
|
|
(7) technical assistance for providers for completing
|
| cost reports including initial training by the Department for providers; and
|
|
(8) an implementation timeline that allows an initial
|
| grace period for providers to adjust internal procedures and data collection.
|
|
Details from collected cost reports shall be made publicly available on the Department's website and costs shall be used to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of Illinois Medicaid rates.
(b) The Department and stakeholders shall develop a plan by April 1, 2024. The Department shall engage stakeholders on implementation of the plan.
