Income

a)         Program income is defined as gross income earned by a delegate

agency from activities which are performed as a result of that delegate agency

having received a grant from the Illinois Department of Public Health.  It

includes fees for services performed or proceeds from usage or rental fees or

the sale of property.  Revenues received from taxes, levies, fines are not

considered program income.

b)         All projects shall have agreements with the Illinois

Department of Healthcare and Family Services' Medical Assistance Program for

reimbursement of covered services for project patients who are Title XIX

recipients.  Steps shall be taken to obtain reimbursement from non-profit,

semiprivate, and private medical insurance programs, when these programs cover

services rendered by these projects.

c)         Program income shall be retained by the delegate agency and

included in the project budget.

d)         Each project may elect charge eligible recipients for certain

services provided by the project; however, a flexible sliding fee scale must be

utilized and included for approval in the project application process prior to

any fees being charged.
