AHS is excited to have signed a contract with the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) to provide Long-Term Care (LTC) Application Processing services. AHS will be instrumental in assisting the state with accepting, facilitating and processing Medicaid applications related to LTC services. AHS will be responsible for registering, entering data, running eligibility, and recommending decisions. We look forward to working with the State to facilitate entry into critical programs for this vulnerable population and forming a strong partnership with HFS.
