Summary

Existing law establishes the Medi-Cal program, which is administered by the State Department of Health Care Services and under which qualified low-income individuals receive health care services. The Medi-Cal program is in part governed by, and funded pursuant to, federal Medicaid program provisions. Under existing law, a critical access hospital is eligible for supplemental payments for Medi-Cal covered outpatient services rendered to Medi-Cal eligible persons, as specified. This bill would appropriate $5,500,000 from the General Fund to the department for the purpose of providing supplemental payments for services covered under the Medi-Cal program, with the stated intent that these payments facilitate the maintenance of operations of the health care system in the County of Inyo and thereby prevent the closure of hospitals within the county. The bill would require that, of the appropriated moneys, $2,500,000 be distributed to the Northern Inyo Healthcare District and $3,000,0000 be distributed to the Southern Inyo Healthcare District. Under the bill, these payments would be in addition to any supplemental payments received by a hospital within the county pursuant to the above-described provision regarding critical access hospitals. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the County of Inyo.
