Bill > H5101

This bill makes several changes to Florida's Medicaid program, including extending the designation of certain hospitals as rural hospitals, removing community intermediate care facilities for the developmentally disabled from a statutory rate freeze, and updating how data is used to calculate payments to hospitals that serve a disproportionate number of low-income patients. It also directs certain rebates from managed care plans to be placed in the state's General Revenue Fund, specifies that contributions to a trust fund for supporting Medicaid and indigent care will go into the Grants and Donations Trust Fund, repeals provisions related to state and local Medicaid partnerships, removes a requirement for the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) to use public expenditures and federal matching funds to support Healthy Start services, and outlines factors AHCA must consider when reconciling payments to long-term care managed care plans.
