Illinois Statutes Chapter 210. Health Facilities and Regulation § 42/40. Reimbursement rules

(A) such services shall be reimbursed in a budget-neutral manner such that reimbursement for services provided by the facility constituent elements of a continuum of care licensee shall be neither greater nor lesser than the reimbursement received for such services provided by that facility constituent element prior to the licensing of the continuum of care facility, adjusted to take into account any subsequent changes in reimbursement for such similar services, or, if the facility constituent element is a new facility reimbursement for the services provided by the new facility shall be no less than the reimbursement received for such services by a comparable facility constituent element of that continuum of care facility; and

(B) a continuum of care licensee shall enter into a single provider agreement with the Director of Healthcare and Family Services or the Secretary of Human Services; changes that may occur from time to time in the facility constituent elements under the continuum of care license shall be addressed as may be required by applicable requirements of law through amendments to the provider agreement; the Director of Healthcare and Family Services shall make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all facility constituent elements that are approved parts of a continuum of care license remain qualified for reimbursement under relevant State and federal programs including Title XIX of the federal Social Security Act; and
