Summary

The bill directs the Department of Central Management Services, together with Illinois’ five state‑funded retirement systems, to contract with an administrator who will locate retirees, annuitants, benefit recipients and their dependents who qualify for Medicare but aren’t enrolled, and help them sign up for Social Security and Medicare. It also requires an annual audit of state health‑benefit plans to ensure Medicare is the primary payer and the state plan is secondary, and it mandates an annual report on enrollments and savings. The measure aims to maximize benefits for eligible individuals and reduce state health‑care costs.
