Amends the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code. Requires the Auditor General to perform a performance and financial audit of the State's managed care medical assistance program. Provides that any safety-net hospital that received grant funding in State Fiscal Year 2019 shall not be obligated to pay any assessment amount, including penalties, that is past due and payable to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services until the Auditor General determines through the required audits that the average denial rate for MCO payments to safety-net hospitals is below 10%.
