Purpose:
The Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services, formerly the Illinois Department of Public Aid, is responsible for providing health care coverage for adults and children who qualify for Medicaid, and for helping to ensure that Illinois children receive financial support from both parents. The agency is organized into two major divisions: Medical Programs and Child Support Enforcement. HFS also administers the Office of Energy Assistance. In addition, the Office of Inspector General is maintained within the agency, but functions as a separate, independent entity reporting directly to the governor's office.
