A. The supplemental hospital offset payment program fee is to supplement, not supplant, appropriations to support hospital reimbursement. If Medicaid payment rates to providers are adjusted, hospital rates shall not be adjusted less favorably than the average percentage-rate reduction or increase applicable to the majority of other provider groups.
B. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Supplemental Hospital Offset Payment Program Act, if, after receipt of authorization to receive federal matching funds for monies generated by the Supplemental Hospital Offset Payment Program Act, the authorization is withdrawn or changed so that federal matching funds are no longer available, the Oklahoma Health Care Authority shall cease collecting the provider fee and shall repay to the hospitals any money received by the Supplemental Hospital Offset Payment Program Fund that is not subject to federal matching funds.
