DHFS-MANAGED CARE EXEMPTIONS

Amends the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code. Exempts transportation services, including those transportation services provided by ground ambulance service providers, medi-car providers, service car providers, and taxi service providers, from the State's managed care medical assistance program. Provides that these services shall continue to be paid under the State's traditional fee-for-service program. House Floor Amendment No. 1 Requires the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to exempt ground ambulance services from the State's managed care medical assistance program (rather than exempt transportation services, including those transportation services provided by ground ambulance service providers, medi-car providers, service car providers, and taxi service providers).
