Synopsis As Introduced
Amends provisions of the Illinois Public Aid Code requiring the Department of Human Services and the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to jointly report the number of applications and redeterminations pending long-term care eligibility determination and admission and the number of appeals of denials. Provides that the report shall specify the number of applications, redeterminations, and appeals that have been pending for 0 to 45 days, 46 days to 90 days, 91 days to 180 days, 181 days to 12 months, over 12 months to 18 months, over 18 months to 24 months, and over 24 months (rather than 0 to 90 days, 91 days to 180 days, 181 days to 12 months, over 12 months to 18 months, over 18 months to 24 months, and over 24 months). Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following additions: Provides that beginning on July 1, 2017, the Auditor General shall report every 3 years to the General Assembly on the Departments' performance and compliance in meeting certain reporting requirements and the federal requirements concerning eligibility determinations for Medicaid long-term care services and supports, and shall report any issues or deficiencies and make recommendations. Sets forth certain issues the Auditor General shall review, consider, and evaluate, including: (i) the efficacy and efficiency of the task-based process used for making eligibility determinations in the centralized offices of the Department of Human Services for long-term care services, including the role of the State's integrated eligibility system, as opposed to the traditional caseworker-specific process from which these central offices have converted; and (ii) any issues affecting eligibility determinations related to the Department of Human Services' staff completing Medicaid eligibility determinations instead of the designated single-state Medicaid agency in Illinois, the Department of Healthcare and Family Services. Requires the Auditor General's report to include any and all other areas or issues which are identified through an annual review. Effective immediately.
