 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 MA Program revisions under the act of May 16, 1996 (P.L. 175, No. 35).

 Effective January 15, 1999, the Department established a new class of disproportionate share payments to include a Charity Care component of the Community Access Fund. A disproportionate share payment will be made to qualifying hospitals based on each hospital's percentage of charity care cost to the total charity care costs of all qualifying hospitals. The Department also established a disproportionate share payment for those hospitals which the Department has determined advanced its goal of enhanced access to multiple types of medical care in economically distressed areas of this Commonwealth.

 The following hospitals qualify for this payment:

ALFRED I. DUPONT INSTITUTE
ABINGTON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL
