PATIENT BILL & OUTSOURCED CARE

State of Illinois

Amends the Fair Patient Billing Act. Provides that the Attorney General shall, by rule, adopt provisions for a uniform financial assistance form (rather than adopt standard provisions) to be included in all applications for financial assistance. Provides that, on or before December 31, 2026, interested stakeholders (rather than a statewide association representing a majority of hospitals) may submit to the Attorney General recommendations concerning a uniform application (rather than standard provisions to be used in an application) for financial assistance, and the Attorney General shall take reasonably relevant recommendations (rather than those recommendations) into account when adopting specified rules. Provides that approval of eligibility for financial assistance is valid for at least 12 months after the first service date for which the patient submitted a financial assistance application. Requires a hospital to use only a uniform financial assistance form developed and provided by the Attorney General. Effective immediately.
