About this file
This Notice of Award is issued by the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services on behalf of the Department of Healthcare and Family Services. The contract, identified as Bid Number 26-478HFS-MEDPR-B-49167, concerns the Health Choice Illinois (HCI) managed care program. Six vendors have been selected for award across two options: Option A includes five managed care organizations—Aetna Better Health of Illinois, Inc.; Healthcare Service Corporation (operating as Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois); Humana Benefit Plan of Illinois, Inc.; Meridian Health Plan of Illinois, Inc.; and Molina Healthcare of Illinois—while Option B awards a single contract to Cook County Health and Hospitals System, doing business as CountyCare Health Plan.
The contract provides managed care services under a capitated rate structure governed by 42 CFR Part 438, with pricing determined by per member per month (PMPM) risk-based capitation rates developed by the Department's actuarial firm rather than traditional bid pricing. The initial contract term is 4.5 years valued at $140,298,419,402.56, with a renewal term of 5.5 years valued at $291,118,842,085.72, yielding a total contract value of $431,417,261,488.28. Option A represents $362,390,499,650.15 total value across five awardees, while Option B totals $69,026,761,838.13 for the single awardee. All six awardees have submitted Business Enterprise Program utilization plans with a 1% BEP participation goal. The award was made through a Request for Proposal process on June 8, 2026, with actual vendor payments to be determined based on approved capitated rates and actual member enrollment numbers.
