(Springfield, IL) — Doctors, dentists, and hospitals across Illinois are about to get billions of dollars from the state. Illinois Comptroller Susana Mendoza yesterday said she plans to pay about nine billion-dollars worth of Illinois employee and Medicaid bills in the next few days. But that’s just about half of what Illinois owes. And Mendoza says she’s not sure when she’ll have the money to pay the rest of Illinois’ 16 billion-dollar backlog of unpaid bills.
