B.  Additional Disproportionate Share Payments

   Additional disproportionate share payments are made to inpatient facilities, with a Medicaid inpatient utilization rate of not less than 1%, which have provided services to persons who have been determined to be low income by meeting the income and resource standards for the State's general assistance program.

   The payment adjustments are paid directly proportional to the payment received for either general assistance recipients for all hospital services or Title XIX recipients age 21--64 for services rendered by institutions for mental diseases under the fee-for-service and capitation programs.

   The following hospitals are eligible for this payment adjustment:

C.  Additional Class of Disproportionate Share Payments

   Effective March 1, 1998, the Department established a new class of disproportionate share payments to hospitals which render uncompensated care and which the Department has determined are experiencing significant revenue loss as a result of Medical Assistance program revisions under Act No. 1996-35.

   Effective January 15, 1999, the Department revised its previously established new class of disproportionate share payments to include a Charity Care component of the Community Access Fund.

The Department also established a disproportionate share payment for those hospitals that experience a high volume of MA births.
