A BILL FOR
HB1802 LRB096 05480 DRJ 15546 b
AN ACT concerning public aid.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Illinois Public Aid Code is amended by
changing Section 5B-2 as follows:
(305 ILCS 5/5B-2) (from Ch. 23, par. 5B-2)
Sec. 5B-2. Assessment; no local authorization to tax.
(a) For the the privilege of engaging in the occupation of
long-term care provider, an assessment is imposed upon each
long-term care provider for the State fiscal year beginning on
July 1, 1992 and ending on June 30, 1993, in an amount equal to
$6.30 times the number of occupied bed days for the most recent
calendar year ending before the beginning of that State fiscal
year. Notwithstanding any provision of any other Act to the
contrary, this assessment shall be construed as a tax, but may
not be added to the charges of an individual's nursing home
care that is paid for in whole, or in part, by a federal,
State, or combined federal-state medical care program, except
those individuals receiving Medicare Part B benefits solely.
(b) Nothing in this amendatory Act of 1992 shall be
construed to authorize any home rule unit or other unit of
local government to license for revenue or impose a tax or
assessment upon long-term care providers or the occupation of

HB1802 - 2 - LRB096 05480 DRJ 15546 b
long-term care provider, or a tax or assessment measured by the
income or earnings or occupied bed days of a long-term care
provider.
