Fair Funding for Rural Hospitals Act establishes a minimum Medicaid disproportionate share hospital allotment for states.
The Fair Funding for Rural Hospitals Act amends title XIX of the Social Security Act to set a minimum Medicaid disproportionate share hospital allotment for states. For fiscal years 2025 through 2029, the minimum allotment is set at $20,000,000. Starting from fiscal year 2030, the allotment will be equal to the previous year's amount, adjusted for inflation. This aims to ensure consistent funding for rural hospitals participating in the Medicaid program.
