(b) If a care provider for persons with a developmental disability operates
or maintains more than one care facility for persons with a developmental disability
in this State, the provider may not file a single return covering
all those care facilities for persons with a developmental disability, but shall file
a separate return for each care facility for persons with a developmental disability and shall compute and pay the assessment for each
care facility for persons with a developmental disability separately.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article, a
person who ceases to conduct, operate, or maintain a
care facility for persons with a developmental disability in respect of which the
person is subject to assessment under this Article as a care provider for persons with a developmental disability, the assessment for the State fiscal year
in which the cessation occurs shall be adjusted by multiplying
the assessment computed under Section 5C-2 by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of months in the year during
which the provider conducts, operates, or maintains the
care facility for persons with a developmental disability and the denominator of
which is 12. The person shall file a final, amended return
with the Illinois Department not more than 90 days after the
cessation reflecting the adjustment and shall pay with the
final return the assessment for the year as so adjusted (to the
extent not previously paid).
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, a
provider who commences conducting, operating, or maintaining a
care facility for persons with a developmental disability shall file an initial
return for the State fiscal year in which the commencement
occurs within 90 days thereafter and shall pay the assessment
computed under Section 5C-2 and subsection (e) in equal
installments on the due date of the return and on the regular
installment due dates for the State fiscal year occurring after
the due date of the initial return.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, in
the case of a care provider for persons with a developmental disability that did not
conduct, operate, or maintain a care facility for persons with a developmental disability throughout the prior State fiscal year, the assessment
for that State fiscal year shall be computed on the basis of
hypothetical adjusted gross developmentally disabled care revenue
for the prior year as determined by rules adopted by
the Illinois Department (which may be based on annualization of
the provider's actual revenues for a portion of the State fiscal
year, or revenues of a comparable facility for such year,
including revenues realized by a prior provider from the same
facility during such year).
(f) In the case of a care provider for persons with a developmental disability
existing as a corporation or legal entity other than an
individual, the return filed by it shall be signed by its
president, vice-president, secretary, or treasurer or by its
properly authorized agent.
(g) If a care provider for persons with a developmental disability fails to
file its return for a State fiscal year on or before the due date
of the return, there shall, unless waived by the Illinois
Department for reasonable cause, be added to the assessment
imposed by Section 5C-2 for the State fiscal year a penalty
assessment equal to 25% of the assessment imposed for the year.
(h) Every care provider for persons with a developmental disability subject to
assessment under this Article shall keep records and books
that will permit the determination of adjusted gross developmentally disabled care revenue on a State fiscal year
basis. All such books and records shall be kept in the English
language and shall, at all times during business hours of the
day, be subject to inspection by the Illinois Department or its
duly authorized agents and employees.
