Department of Medical Assistance Services 602 Operating Governor's
Modifies the appropriation for the Virginia Health Care Fund to reflect the latest revenue estimates. Revenue from the Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) is expected to remain unchanged in FY 2022. Tobacco taxes are projected to increase by $0.8 million in 2022 based on the Department of Taxation's revised forecast which assumes that a decline in cigarette taxes will be offset by other tobacco products revenue. FY 2022 pharmacy rebate estimates are not being adjusted; however, Medicaid recoveries are expected to increase by $39.5 million due to one time deposits. The largest driver of current year revenue growth is a $92.5 million prior year balance in the fund. This revenue was largely attributable to larger than expected MSA payments in FY 2021 and a return of $54.8 million associated with the managed care profit cap. Since the fund is used as state match for Medicaid, any change in revenue to the fund impacts general fund support for Medicaid.
