1     AN ACT concerning public aid.
 
2     Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
 
4     Section 5. The Illinois Public Aid Code is amended by
5 changing Section 5A-2 as follows:
 
6     (305 ILCS 5/5A-2)  (from Ch. 23, par. 5A-2)
7     (Section scheduled to be repealed on July 1, 2005)
8     Sec. 5A-2. Assessment; no local authorization to tax.
9     (a) Subject to Sections 5A-3 and 5A-10, an annual
10 assessment on inpatient services is imposed on each hospital
11 provider in an amount equal to the hospital's occupied bed days
12 multiplied by $84.19 for State fiscal years 2004 and and 2005,
13 if the payment methodologies required under 5A-12 and the
14 waiver granted under 42 CFR 433.68 are approved with an
15 effective date prior to July 1, 2004; or the assessment will be
16 imposed for fiscal year 2005 only, if the payment methodologies
17 required under Section 5A-12 and the waiver granted under 42
18 CFR 433.68 are approved with an effective date on or after July
19 1, 2004.
20     The Department of Public Aid shall use the number of
21 occupied bed days as reported by each hospital on the Annual
22 Survey of Hospitals conducted by the Department of Public
23 Health to calculate the hospital's annual assessment. If the
24 sum of a hospital's occupied bed days is not reported on the
25 Annual Survey of Hospitals or if there are data errors in the
26 reported sum of a hospital's occupied bed days as determined by
27 the Department of Public Aid, then the Department of Public Aid
28 may obtain the sum of occupied bed days from any source
29 available, including, but not limited to, records maintained by
30 the hospital provider, which may be inspected at all times
31 during business hours of the day by the Department of Public
32 Aid or its duly authorized agents and employees.
