Re: Fiscal Year 2022 July through December 2021 Hospital Inpatient and Outpatient Assessment Programs - Notice of Assessments
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is to inform you of an error which was discovered on the Hospital Provider notice dated June 11, 2021.
It has been determined that while the tax calculation worksheets detailing the bases for the inpatient and outpatient assessments, as well as each remittance card's total monthly hospital assessment amounts to be paid are correct, the amount reflecting your facility's monthly outpatient hospital in the section above each remittance card is inaccurate.
To calculate the correct outpatient portion of your facility's monthly hospital assessment, please find the bottom number of your outpatient tax calculation worksheet (the 5th page of the packet) and divide it by six (6). When this number is then added to the monthly inpatient hospital assessment amount, the total should equal the monthly assessment amount due on the remittance card.
If you have any questions concerning this information, please do not hesitate to contact the Bureau of Rate Development and Analysis by e-mail at HFS.ProviderAssessmentUnit@illinois.gov, or by telephone at 217-524-7110.
