SB 3068

Abstract

Amends the Illinois Public Aid Code. Provides that the Department of Healthcare and Family Services may not recover any overpayment or money improperly or erroneously paid under the Medicaid program to the extent that the overpayment or improper or erroneous payment was to a long-term care facility and resulted from the failure of personnel in a County Department of Public Aid office or local office of the Department of Human Services to document the income of residents of the facility for the purpose of adjusting the amounts paid by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (formerly the Department of Public Aid) to the facility for services provided to those residents. Effective immediately.
