Illinois SB2407 amends Medicaid payments to nursing facilities, focusing on compensation for certified nursing assistants (CNA).
Illinois SB2407 amends the Medicaid payment system for nursing facilities to increase compensation for certified nursing assistants (CNA). The bill removes the requirement for the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to establish payments equal to Medicaid's share of CNA hours. Instead, it provides that the Department shall pay to each facility Medicaid's share of the facility's estimated CNA hours performed by employees and agency workers, estimated overtime hours, and benefits and taxes paid to and on behalf of CNA workers at the beginning of each quarter.
