Bill Title: Amends the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code. Restores a provision that was previously repealed by Public Act 97-689 and that requires the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to promulgate rules that establish a policy of bed reserve payments to intermediate care facilities for the developmentally disabled (ICF/DDs) which address the needs of residents of ICF/DDs and their families. Restores a provision that was previously repealed by Public Act 97-689 and that requires the Department to approve bed reserves at a daily rate of 75% of an individual's current Medicaid per diem, for nursing facilities 90% or more of whose residents are Medicaid recipients and that have occupancy levels of at least 93% for resident bed reserves not exceeding 10 days. Removes a provision requiring the Department to cease payment for bed reserves in nursing facilities, specialized mental health rehabilitation facilities, and, except in the instance of residents who are under 21 years of age, intermediate care facilities for persons with developmental disabilities.
