Transfers LIPOS (local inpatient purchase of service) funds to agency 790 (Grants to Localities). There is an additional amendment that moves LIPOS funds from the agency's central office to agency 790. In total these transfers will result in all LIPOS funds being appropriated in one agency code, improving transparency and eliminating the need for administrative transfers. |

Provides funds to offset the loss of Medicaid Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) payments at two behavioral health facilities that receive funding, Piedmont Geriatric Hospital and Catawba Hospital. The reduction in DSH funds is a result of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA, P. L. 111-148 as amended), which requires a reduction of DSH funding for all states. |

This amendment reduces the general fund by $907,820 the first year and $1.3 million the second year contained in the introduced budget to backfill an expected loss of Medicaid Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) payments at state behavioral health facilities, Catawba Hospital and Piedmont Geriatric Hospital. The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 delays DSH payment reductions for two years. A companion amendment in Item 303 restores the state and federal share of DSH payments to these facilities. |
