Summary
Illinois Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) is transitioning from mailing paper notices and bulletins to electronic-only distribution via their website. Providers must register for email notifications to receive alerts when new notices are posted online, as paper mailings will be discontinued.
Action Required
Immediately: All billing team members and relevant staff must register for email notifications at http://www.illinois.gov/hfs/MedicalProviders/notices/Pages/default.aspx. Select appropriate provider categories plus 'All Medical Assistance Providers' category. Each person must register separately. Update contact information when email addresses change by re-registering. Failure to register will result in missing important policy updates and notices.
