305 ILCS 5/ Illinois Public Aid Code.

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

As used in this Article, unless the
context requires otherwise:

"Nursing home" means (i) a skilled nursing or intermediate long-term care
facility, whether public or private and whether organized for profit or
not-for-profit, that is subject to licensure by the Illinois Department
of Public Health under the Nursing Home Care Act, the ID/DD Community Care Act, or the MC/DD Act, including a
county nursing home directed and maintained under Section
5-1005 of the Counties Code, and (ii) a part of a hospital in
which skilled or intermediate long-term care services within the
meaning of Title XVIII or XIX of the Social Security Act are
provided; except that the term "nursing home" does not include a facility
operated solely as an intermediate care facility for the intellectually disabled
within the meaning of Title XIX of the Social Security Act or a specialized mental health rehabilitation facility.

"Nursing home provider" means (i) a person licensed
by the Department of Public Health to operate and maintain a
skilled nursing or intermediate long-term care facility which charges its
residents, a third party payor, Medicaid, or Medicare for skilled nursing or
intermediate long-term care services, or (ii) a hospital provider that
provides skilled or intermediate long-term care services within
the meaning of Title XVIII or XIX of the Social Security Act.
"Nursing home provider" does not include a person who operates or a provider who provides services within a specialized mental health rehabilitation facility. For purposes of this paragraph, "person" means any political
subdivision of the State, municipal corporation, individual,
firm, partnership, corporation, company, limited liability
company, association, joint stock association, or trust, or a
receiver, executor, trustee, guardian, or other representative
appointed by order of any court.  "Hospital provider" means a
person licensed by the Department of Public Health to conduct,
operate, or maintain a hospital.

"Licensed bed days" shall be computed separately for each nursing home
operated or maintained by a nursing home provider and means, with respect to a
nursing home provider, the sum for all nursing home beds of the number of days
during a calendar quarter on which each bed is covered by a license issued to
that provider under the Nursing Home Care Act or the Hospital Licensing Act.
