Amend CSSB 1 by adding on page II-__ in the bill pattern of
the Health and Human Services Commission a rider that reads as
follows:
Critical Medicaid Hospital Reimbursement. It is the intent of
the legislature that the Health and Human Services Commission may
seek the necessary state plan amendments or a waiver for
establishing a separate and distinct Medicaid inpatient and
outpatient reimbursement methodology for supplementing the rates
paid to public hospitals who are critical care providers, as
defined by the Health and Human Services Commission that are
essential to the Medicaid program. The Commission shall use either
a certified public expenditures process or local funds transferred
by local government entities as the non-federal share to draw
Medicaid federal funds.
