Introduced Text

Illinois SB3594 amends Medicaid reimbursement rates for nursing facilities.

Illinois SB3594 amends the Illinois Public Aid Code to adjust Medicaid reimbursement rates for nursing facilities. Beginning January 1, 2027, the Department of Healthcare and Family Services must recompute the STAR rating for nursing facilities whose antipsychotic medication quality measure score was suppressed and their STAR rating set to one due to federal audit actions. The bill also mandates changes to the reimbursement rates for nursing facilities, including adjustments based on the Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM) and the inclusion of per diem add-ons for staffing.
