Description

Modifies the appropriation for the Virginia Health Care Fund to reflect the latest revenue estimates. Tobacco taxes are projected to decrease by $10.1 million in FY 2019 and $10.8 million in FY 2020 based on the Department of Taxation's revised forecast. Conversely, Medicaid recoveries are expected to increase by $22.3 million in FY 2019 and $17.3 million in FY 2020. Since the Health Care Fund is used as state match for Medicaid, any change in revenue to the fund impacts general fund support for Medicaid.
