CHICAGO (AP) — Gov. Pat Quinn plans to sign Illinois’ Medicaid reform legislation into law.
Quinn is set to sign the legislation Tuesday morning in downtown Chicago. His office says he’ll be joined by the leaders of the Illinois Department of Human Services and Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services. Illinois State Senate President John Cullerton also is slated to be there along with other lawmakers.
The state Legislature sent Quinn the legislation on Jan. 6. Lawmakers say it aims to reduce costs, pay bills sooner and target fraud.
