General Court of Claims 45 denied Initial Invoice Was Submitted v. (1991) 45 Ill. Ct. Cl. 374 Unknown (No. 92 CC 3328). At the time this /opinions/v45-p0478-1/

initial invoice was submitted, Claimant had not previously forwarded a copy of its private-pay charges to IDPA’s local office for adjudication of Ford’s September 1990 spenddown obligation, as required (Handbook f o r Hospi- . tals, Topics 105 and H-214.2). As a result, Fords MAP eligibility during September 1990 had not been estab- lished; and Claimant had not received a Split Billing Transmittal (DPA form 2432) from the local office, to submit with its invoice as verification that Ford’s Septem- ber spenddown obligation had been “met.” (See S t . Anthony Hospital Medical Center v. State (1991), 44 Ill. Ct. C1. 98.) Further, although Claimant’s “10-19-90” invoice had designated these, by the cotde used, as outpa- tient services-all performed on “09-12-90,” the invoice included charges for surgical and medical procedures reportedly performed on “09-13” and “09-14” as well as “09-12.” IDPA cited these deficiencies and inconsisten- cies in its December 4, 1990 notice, which refused pay- ment of this invoice; and the record here shows that Claimant had not remedied these problems by submitting a corrected rebill-invoice of its charges for Fords services by September 16, 1991, as required by IDPA Rule 140.20. Respondent further asserts that, under subsection (1)of PAC section 11-13, the Court lacked jurisdiction to entertain the claim for patient Kirby’s services as of June 26, 1992, when that claim
