Establishes a Medicaid state-directed payment program for qualifying hospitals in Kentucky.
The bill amends Kentucky Revised Statutes to establish a Medicaid state-directed payment program. Qualifying hospitals can earn enhanced add-on payments from Medicaid managed care organizations based on their average commercial rate for services provided. Eligible hospitals include those participating in the hospital rate and having an agreement for clinical rotations with a university-affiliated graduate medical education program, or pediatric teaching hospitals. Payments apply to services delivered to patients aged 18 or younger.
