20 Sec. 9. MEDICAL ASSISTANCE - SUPPLEMENTAL
21 AMOUNTS. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2000,
22 and ending June 30, 2001, the department of human
23 services shall continue the supplemental
24 disproportionate share and a supplemental indirect
25 medical education adjustment applicable to state-owned
26 acute care hospitals with more than 500 beds and shall
27 reimburse qualifying hospitals pursuant to that
28 adjustment with a supplemental amount for services
29 provided medical assistance recipients. The
30 adjustment shall generate supplemental payments
31 intended to equal the state appropriation made to a
32 qualifying hospital for treatment of indigent patients
33 as provided in chapter 255. To the extent of the
34 supplemental payments, a qualifying hospital shall,
35 after receipt of the funds, transfer to the department
36 of human services an amount equal to the actual
37 supplemental payments that were made in that month.
38 The aggregate amounts for the fiscal year shall not
39 exceed the state appropriation made to the qualifying
40 hospital for treatment of indigent patients as
41 provided in chapter 255. The department of human
42 services shall deposit these funds in the department's
43 medical assistance account. To the extent that state
44 funds appropriated to a qualifying hospital for the
45 treatment of indigent patients as provided in chapter
46 255 have been transferred to the department of human
47 services as a result of these supplemental payments
48 made to the qualifying hospital, the department shall
49 not, directly or indirectly, recoup the supplemental
50 payments made to a qualifying hospital for any reason,
Page 18

1 unless an equivalent amount of the funds transferred
2 to the department of human services by a qualifying
3 hospital pursuant to this provision is transferred to
4 the qualifying hospital by the department.
5 If the state supplemental amount allotted to the
6 state of Iowa for the federal fiscal year beginning
7 October 1, 2000, and ending September 30, 2001,
8 pursuant to section 1923(f)(3) of the federal Social
9 Security Act, as amended, or pursuant to federal
10 payments for indirect medical education is greater
11 than the amount necessary to fund the federal share of
12 the supplemental payments specified in the preceding
13 paragraph, the department of human services shall
14 increase the supplemental disproportionate share or
15 supplemental indirect medical education adjustment by
16 the lesser of the amount necessary to utilize fully
17 the state supplemental amount or the amount of state
18 funds appropriated to the state university of Iowa
19 general education fund and allocated to the university
20 for the college of medicine. The state university of
21 Iowa shall transfer from the allocation for the
22 college of medicine to the department of human
23 services, on a monthly basis, an amount equal to the
24 additional supplemental payments made during the
25 previous month pursuant to this paragraph. A
26 qualifying hospital receiving supplemental payments
27 pursuant to this paragraph that are greater than the
28 state appropriation made to the qualifying hospital
29 for treatment of indigent patients as provided in
30 chapter 255 shall be obligated as a condition of its
31 participation in the medical assistance program to
32 transfer to the state university of Iowa general
33 education fund on a monthly basis an amount equal to
34 the funds transferred by the state university of Iowa
35 to the department of human services. To the extent
36 that state funds appropriated to the state university
37 of Iowa and allocated to the college of medicine have
38 been transferred to the department of human services
39 as a result of these supplemental payments made to the
40 qualifying hospital, the department shall not,
41 directly or indirectly, recoup these supplemental
42 payments made to a qualifying hospital for any reason,
43 unless an equivalent amount of the funds transferred
44 to the department of human services by the state
45 university of Iowa pursuant to this paragraph is
46 transferred to the qualifying hospital by the
47 department.
48 Continuation of the supplemental disproportionate
49 share and supplemental indirect medical education
50 adjustment shall preserve the funds available to the
Page 19

1 university hospital for medical and surgical treatment
2 of indigent patients as provided in chapter 255 and to
3 the state university of Iowa for educational purposes
4 at the same level as provided by the state funds
5 initially appropriated for that purpose.
6 The department of human services shall, in any
7 compilation of data or other report distributed to the
8 public concerning payments to providers under the
9 medical assistance program, set forth reimbursements
10 to a qualifying hospital through the supplemental
11 disproportionate share and supplemental indirect
12 medical education adjustment as a separate item and
13 shall not include such payments in the amounts
14 otherwise reported as the reimbursement to a
15 qualifying hospital for services to medical assistance
16 recipients.
17 For purposes of this section, "supplemental
18 payment" means a supplemental payment amount paid for
19 medical assistance to a hospital qualifying for that
20 payment under this section.
21 Sec. 10. 2000 Iowa Acts, House File 2039, section
22 24, is amended to read as follows:

30 the enhanced claiming during the period beginning with
31 the effective date of this Act, and ending June 30,
32 2001, shall be credited to the general fund of the
33 state. The balance of the additional reimbursement
34 received during the period is appropriated to the
35 state board of regents for the state university of
36 Iowa hospitals and clinics for other expenses
37 associated with the enhanced claiming and for the
38 provision of services. The state board of regents
