    (a) The Community Developmental Disability Services Medicaid Trust Fund is hereby created in the State treasury.

    (b) Except as provided in subsection (b-5), any funds in any fiscal year paid to the State by the federal government under Title XIX or Title XXI of the Social Security Act for services delivered by community developmental disability services providers for services relating to Developmental Training and Community Integrated Living Arrangements as a result of the conversion of such providers from a grant payment methodology to a fee-for-service payment methodology, or any other funds paid to the State for any subsequent revenue maximization initiatives performed by such providers, and any interest earned thereon, shall be deposited directly into the Community Developmental Disability Services Medicaid Trust Fund to pay for Medicaid-reimbursed community developmental disability services provided to eligible individuals.

    (b-5) Beginning in State fiscal year 2008, any funds paid to the State by the federal government under Title XIX or Title XXI of the Social Security Act for services delivered through the Children's Residential Waiver and the Children's In-Home Support Waiver shall be deposited directly into the Trust Fund and shall not be subject to the transfer provisions of subsection (b).

    (b-7) The Community Developmental Disability Services Medicaid Trust Fund is not subject to administrative charge-backs.

    (b-9) The Department of Human Services shall annually report to the Governor and the General Assembly, by September 1, on both the total revenue deposited into the Trust Fund and the total expenditures made from the Trust Fund for the previous fiscal year. This report shall include detailed descriptions of both revenues and expenditures regarding the Trust Fund from the previous fiscal year. This report shall be presented by the Secretary of Human Services to the appropriate Appropriations Committee in the House of Representatives, as determined by the Speaker of the House, and in the Senate, as determined by the President of the Senate. This report shall be made available to the public and shall be published on the Department of Human Services' website in an appropriate location, a minimum of one week prior to presentation of the report to the General Assembly.

    (b-10) Whenever a State developmental disabilities facility operated by the Department is closed and the real estate on which the facility is located is sold by the State, the net proceeds of the sale of the real estate shall be deposited into the Community Developmental Disability Services Medicaid Trust Fund and used for the purposes enumerated in subsections (c) and (d) of Section 4.6 of the Community Services Act; however, under subsection (e) of Section 4.6 of the Community Services Act, the Department may set aside a portion of the net proceeds of the sale of the real estate for deposit into the Human Services Priority Capital Program Fund. The portion set aside shall be used for the purposes enumerated in Section 6z-71 of the State Finance Act.

    (c) For purposes of this Section:

    "Trust Fund" means the Community Developmental Disability Services Medicaid Trust Fund.

    "Medicaid-reimbursed developmental disability services" means services provided by a community developmental disability provider under an agreement with the Department that is eligible for reimbursement under the federal Title XIX program or Title XXI program.

    "Provider" means a qualified entity as defined in the State's Home and Community-Based Services Waiver for Persons with Developmental Disabilities that is funded by the Department to provide a Medicaid-reimbursed service.
