Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Illinois Public Aid Code.   In  provisions  concerning      
   participation  in  the  Medicaid  program  by  vendors  of  goods  and      
   services, authorizes the Department of Public Aid to deny, suspend, or      
   terminate  a  vendor's  participation if the Department finds that the      
   vendor (or a person having a certain relationship to the  vendor)  was      
   terminated  from  participation  in  a  medical  assistance program in      
   another  state.   Authorizes  the  Department  to  deny,  suspend,  or      
   terminate a vendor's participation if the Department  finds  that  the      
   vendor  (or  a person having a certain relationship to the vendor) has      
   been  convicted  of  a  felony  offense  based  on  fraud  or  willful      
   misrepresentation related to  medical  assistance,  Medicare,  or  the      
   provision  of  health  care  services.   Provides  for rescission of a      
   vendor's termination from participation in the Medicaid program if the      
   termination was based solely on an action  by  a  governmental  entity      
   other than the Department of Public Aid.  Effective January 1, 2002.
