Pursuant to 42 CFR Section 447.205, the Department of Health hereby gives public notice of the following:

The Department of Health proposes to amend the Title XIX (Medicaid) State Plan for institutional services to comply with enacted statutory provisions. The following changes are proposed:

Institutional Services

The following is a clarification to the April 1, 2020 noticed provision to implement a series of savings proposals related to Indigent Care, the conversion of Upper Payment Limit payments into Medicaid rates and the reduction of hospital inpatient capital rate add-ons by 5 percent and capital reconciliation payments by 10 percent. The fiscals for the Indigent Care proposals, enacted in the SFY 2020 Budget, were clarified in the June 3, 2020 noticed provision. With clarification to the remaining proposals, there is no additional estimated annual change to gross Medicaid expenditures as a result of the conversion of Upper Payment Limit payments into Medicaid rates. Also, the estimated annual net aggregate decrease in gross Medicaid expenditures attributable to the reduction of hospital inpatient capital rate add-ons by 5 percent and capital reconciliation payments by 10 percent contained in the budget for SFY 2020-2021 and SFY 2021-2022 is $9.9 million per year.

The public is invited to review and comment on this proposed State Plan Amendment, a copy of which will be available for public review on the Department’s website at http://www.health.ny.gov/regulations/state_plans/status. Individuals without Internet access may view the State Plan Amendments at any local (county) social services district.
