go here to check it out http://www.ilhitrec.org/ilhitrec/ , and I would strongly suggest calling them and speaking to them on the phone to querry their support services. These are afforded under the HITEC Act and are free in most (or all) states.

In IL they were $875. They were only going to help you get Stage 1, which was a joke for Medicaid. Don't know how helpful they will be for stage 2. Medicaid IL is just beginning that.
