2004 Senate Bill 1063 ↩

Senate Roll Call 168: The amendment was not adopted

To add $5 million to the extra money paid to hospitals with a high proportion of Medicaid patients, and revise the proposed new formula by which the money is distributed to hospitals. Under the current formula, many hospitals with a large number of Medicaid patients do not get this money because their relative proportion of Medicaid patients is less than certain metro-Detroit area hospitals. The new formula would reduce payments to Detroit-area hospitals by approximately $4.3 million.
