AI Summary
This bill amends Section 110a of the Michigan Public Act 280 of 1939, which governs the state's provision of medical services and assistance to low-income residents. The key provisions are:
1) The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) must allocate at least $26 million annually to a "rural hospital access pool" to assist sole community hospitals and rural hospitals in providing services to low-income residents.
2) The funds are distributed based on the proportion of Medicaid deliveries performed and Medicaid fee-for-service and managed care outpatient payments, with a 10% cap on the maximum any single hospital can receive.
3) MDHHS must implement the program in a way that maximizes federal Medicaid matching funds.
4) The bill defines "rural hospital" as having 50 or fewer beds and located in a county/city/township with a population of 195,000 or less, and "sole community hospital" as a hospital classified as such under federal regulations.
