Pritzker Signs Medicaid Omnibus

Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker has signed Senate Bill 3365, setting aside 110-million dollars in state taxpayer funding for fiscal year 2027 to expand and strengthen Medicaid services. The governor’s office says the measure is designed to protect patients as Illinois prepares for possible federal changes that could affect the state’s health care system. Supporters say the investment will help preserve access to care for residents who rely on Medicaid, while also giving providers more stability. The legislation positions Illinois to respond quickly if federal health care rules or funding levels shift in the coming year.
