AI Summary

This bill requires the Secretary of the Executive Office of Health and Human Services to conduct a study on revising the Non-Public Ambulance Trust Fund, including reviewing the payment models, uniform assessment, and non-public emergency ambulance charges set forth in state law. The study will examine the fiscal impact of the assessment and payment models on regionalized emergency-only, non-profit ambulance services with no Medicaid patients, as well as the assessment's compliance with federal law and its effect on Medicaid expenditures eligible for federal financial participation. The Secretary must also review enforcement mechanisms for the fund and consult with interested parties. The findings and recommendations for revisions or amendments to the fund and its assessment and payment models, including whether the revisions would promote regionalized emergency-only, non-profit ambulance services, must be reported to the state legislature by June 30, 2024.
