| 7 | | Sec. 11-13. Conditions For Receipt of Vendor Payments - | 8 | | Limitation Period
For Vendor Action - Penalty For Violation. A | 9 | | vendor payment, as defined in

| 13 | | additional payment therefor from the recipient or any other | 14 | | person. A

|
| 1 | | met from the income and resources available
to the recipient, | 2 | | and in respect to which the vendor payment of the
Illinois | 3 | | Department or the local governmental unit represents
| 4 | | supplementation of such available income and resources.
| 5 | | Vendors seeking to enforce obligations of a governmental | 6 | | unit or the
Illinois Department for goods or services (1) | 7 | | furnished to or in behalf of
recipients and (2) subject to a | 8 | | vendor payment as defined in Section 2-5,
shall commence their | 9 | | actions in the appropriate Circuit Court or the Court
of | 10 | | Claims, as the case may require, within 5 years one year next | 11 | | after the cause of
action accrued.
| 12 | | A cause of action accrues within the meaning of this | 13 | | Section upon the following date:
| 14 | | (1) If the vendor can prove that he submitted a bill | 15 | | for the service
rendered to the Illinois Department or a | 16 | | governmental unit within 180 days after the date the | 17 | | service was rendered, then (a) upon the date the Illinois
| 18 | | Department or a governmental unit mails to the vendor | 19 | | information that it
is paying a bill in part or is refusing | 20 | | to pay a bill in whole or in part,
or (b) upon the date one | 21 | | year following the date the vendor submitted such
bill if | 22 | | the Illinois Department or a governmental unit fails to | 23 | | mail to
the vendor such payment information within one year | 24 | | following the date the
vendor submitted the bill; or
| 25 | | (2) If the vendor cannot prove that he submitted a bill | 26 | | for the service
rendered within 180 days after the date the |
| | | 09900SB1051sam002 | - 3 - | LRB099 05380 HEP 49330 a |
|
| 1 | | service was rendered, then upon
the date 12 months | 2 | | following the date the vendor rendered the
service to the | 3 | | recipient.
| 4 | | In the case of long term care facilities, where the | 5 | | Illinois Department initiates the monthly billing process for | 6 | | the vendor, the cause of action shall accrue 12 months after | 7 | | the last day of the month the service was rendered. | 8 | | This paragraph governs only vendor payments as
defined in | 9 | | this Code and as limited by regulations of the Illinois
| 10 | | Department; it does not apply to goods or services purchased or | 11 | | contracted
for by a recipient under circumstances in which the | 12 | | payment is to be made
directly by the recipient.
| 13 | | Any vendor who accepts a vendor payment and who knowingly | 14 | | obtains or
attempts to obtain additional payment for the goods | 15 | | or services covered by
the vendor payment from the recipient or | 16 | | any other person shall be guilty
of a Class B misdemeanor.
