15 Sec. 45. Title IV-E funds for legal services to foster
16youth and families.
17 (a) Findings and purpose. The General Assembly finds the
18following:
19 (1) Child welfare court proceedings are serious and
20 life changing. Children and youth are subject to court
21 decisions that may forever change their family
22 composition, as well as their connections to culture and
23 heritage.
24 (2) The gravity of child welfare proceedings and the

SB1720 Enrolled- 9 -LRB102 15815 RJF 21183 b
1 rights and liabilities at stake necessitate the provision
2 of quality legal representation for children and youth
3 throughout the duration of child welfare proceedings.
4 (3) Legal representation serves to protect and advance
5 the interests of children and youth in court and provides
6 confidential attorney-client privilege to ensure children
7 feel safe sharing with attorneys information that
8 otherwise may go unvoiced.
9 (4) As the agency responsible for administering the
10 State's approved Title IV-E State Plan, the Department of
11 Children and Family Services is the only State agency with
12 the authority to seek federal matching funds under Title
13 IV-E of the Social Security Act for children who are
14 candidates for foster care, children who are in foster
15 care, and parents who are participating in foster care
16 legal proceedings.
17 (5) It is the intent of the General Assembly to ensure
18 the Department leverages and maximizes federal resources
19 to support the provision of quality legal representation
20 to children and families to improve outcomes in the child
21 welfare system.
22 (b) Definitions. As used in this Section:

18 intern and resident cost on its Medicare cost report shall

20 (2) Each hospital's annualized Medicaid Intern
21 Resident Cost is calculated using annualized intern and
22 resident total costs obtained from Worksheet B Part I,
23 Columns 21 and 22 the sum of Lines 30-43, 50-76, 90-93,
24 96-98, and 105-112 multiplied by the percentage that the
25 hospital's Medicaid days (Worksheet S3 Part I, Column 7,
26 Lines 2, 3, 4, 14, 16-18, and 32) comprise of the

SB1720 Enrolled- 58 -LRB102 15815 RJF 21183 b
1 hospital's total days (Worksheet S3 Part I, Column 8,
2 Lines 14, 16-18, and 32).
3 (3) An annualized Medicaid indirect medical education
4 (IME) payment is calculated for each hospital using its
5 IME payments (Worksheet E Part A, Line 29, Column 1)
6 multiplied by the percentage that its Medicaid days
7 (Worksheet S3 Part I, Column 7, Lines 2, 3, 4, 14, 16-18,

9 I, Column 6, Lines 2, 3, 4, 14, and 16-18).
10 (4) For each hospital, its annualized Medicaid Intern
11 Resident Cost and its annualized Medicaid IME payment are
12 summed, and, except as capped at 120% of the average cost
13 per intern and resident for all qualifying hospitals as
14 calculated under this paragraph, is multiplied by the
15 applicable reimbursement factor as described in this
16 paragraph, to determine the hospital's final graduate
17 medical education payment. Each hospital's average cost
18 per intern and resident shall be calculated by summing its
19 total annualized Medicaid Intern Resident Cost plus its
20 annualized Medicaid IME payment and dividing that amount
21 by the hospital's total Full Time Equivalent Residents and
22 Interns. If the hospital's average per intern and resident
23 cost is greater than 120% of the same calculation for all
24 qualifying hospitals, the hospital's per intern and
25 resident cost shall be capped at 120% of the average cost
26 for all qualifying hospitals.
