DHFS-FFS SUPPLEMENTAL PAYMENTS

Summary

The bill amends the Illinois Public Aid Code to give freestanding psychiatric hospitals a supplemental payment of $200 for each covered inpatient day and $200 for each outpatient claim when they reopen a hospital that was closed within the past four years. The payment is calculated using 2019 fee‑for‑service claim data stored in the DHFS Enterprise Data Warehouse as of May 11, 2020. The goal is to encourage the restoration of psychiatric hospital capacity and improve access to mental health services.
