Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    Sec. 5A-12.5. Affordable Care Act adults; hospital access payments.
    (a) The Department shall, subject to federal approval, mirror the Medical Assistance hospital reimbursement methodology for Affordable Care Act adults who are enrolled under a fee-for-service or capitated managed care program, including hospital access payments as defined in Section 5A-12.2 of this Article and hospital access improvement payments as defined in Section 5A-12.4 of this Article, in compliance with the equivalent rate provisions of the Affordable Care Act.
    (b) If the fee-for-service payments authorized under this Section are deemed to be increases to payments for a prior period, the Department shall seek federal approval to issue such increases for the payments made through the period ending on June 30, 2018, or as provided in Section 5A-16, even if such increases are paid out during an extended payment period beyond such date. Payment of such increases beyond such date is subject to federal approval. If the Department receives federal approval of such increases, the Department shall pay such increases on the same schedule as it had used for such payments prior to June 30, 2018.
    (c) As used in this Section, "Affordable Care Act" is the collective term for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Pub. L. 111-148) and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-152).
