MEDICAID-PAYMENT RATES-FQHCS

Summary

The bill directs the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services to obtain a CMS State Plan amendment that sets prospective cost‑reimbursement rates for federally qualified health centers and look‑alikes. It establishes how rates are calculated, adjusted each year, and applied to new centers, and it guarantees full payment when services are delivered through Medicaid managed care or to patients enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid. The goal is to ensure consistent, cost‑based funding for these safety‑net providers.
