For Providers in Kane, Jackson, Madison, Perry, Randolph, St. Clair, Washington and Williamson
In an effort to help educate your existing patients about the changes in HFS Medical Programs, Automated Health Systems and the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) have prepared an Existing Patient Education Form Letter. This information is intended for use by your office only and may only be reproduced by your office.
You may mail or share the Form Letter with your existing patients only, for the sole purpose of educating them about choosing a PCP and your availability as a participating PCP in Illinois Health Connect and/or Harmony Health Plan. Changes to the letter may not be made without prior approval from HFS. You may submit changes to the following address:
Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services
Bureau of Managed Care
201 S. Grand Ave. East
Springfield, IL 62763.
Before sharing the Form Letter with your existing patients, you will need to fill in all appropriate office information and patient information as identified in the letter. You may also print the Form Letter on your letterhead.
Should an existing patient have additional questions about choosing a PCP, you may answer their questions.
