Medicaid-Income Verification

Abstract

Amends the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code. Requires the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to establish, within 6 months after the effective date of the amendatory Act, uniform procedures to identify, investigate, and resolve potential cases of fraud, misrepresentation, or inadequate documentation prior to determining an applicant's eligibility for medical assistance under the Code. Requires the Department to establish a computerized income eligibility verification system in order to verify eligibility, eliminate duplication of assistance, and deter fraud. Provides that prior to awarding medical assistance or continuing such assistance, the Department shall match the social security number of each applicant and recipient against unearned income information maintained by the Internal Revenue Service; employer quarterly reports of income and unemployment insurance payment information maintained by the Department of Employment Security; immigration status information maintained by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services; and other State and federal informational databases. Contains provisions concerning the procedures the Department shall follow when discovering a discrepancy between an applicant's or recipient's social security number and information contained in specified databases. Contains provisions concerning reporting requirements and third-party entities contracted to review or to provide information to facilitate the review of eligibility criteria for individuals enrolled in the medical assistance program prior to the effective date of the amendatory Act. Effective immediately.
