Contract Amendment for MANG Services, University of Illinois Hospital and Clinics, Chicago

(6) The chancellor at Chicago recommends the approval of an amendment to increase the payments to HHL Financial Services, Inc. (HHL), Lincolnwood, for services associated with the filing of Medicaid applications. At the June 10, 1994, board meeting, a contract was approved to allow payment for the professional services of HHL for filing and qualifying patients for Medical Assistance No Grant (MANG) applications provided in Fiscal Year 1994, but not paid until FY 1995 by the Illinois Department of Public Aid (IDPA). The approved contract was limited to $250,000 and resulted from an estimate of approximately $1,250,000 in paid claims to the hospital. However, due to the large backlog of claims with IDPA, payments in the amount of $2,750,000 are expected to be received as a result of HHL's efforts. It is necessary, therefore, to increase the contract with HHL by $300,000 to a total of $550,000. Funds are available in the Hospital Income Fund. The vice president for business and finance recommends approval. I concur.

On motion of Dr. Gindorf, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Engelbrecht, Dr. Gindorf, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez, Mrs. O'Malley, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Calder, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Didato-Castillo, Mr. Rose; no, none.)

Contract, Stairs and Life Safety Remodeling, lllini Union, Urbana

(7) The president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends the award of a contract for $295,000 to Ranken Steel, Inc., Champaign, the lowest responsible bidder, on the basis of its base bid, for the structural steel and miscellaneous metal work for the stairs and life safety remodeling project in the lllini Union at the Urbana campus. The proposed $2.3 million project consists of reconfiguration and enclosure of the north interior stair towers to satisfy code requirements while preserving the essential architectural integrity of the building's interior space. Concurrent with this project, the men's room on the north lower level is to be relocated, facilitating construction of the northwest interior stair tower. Also included in the project is the installation of sprinkler systems in the basement and the stairwells.
