Increase Medicaid nursing facility funding by $115
|
|
|
million in 2001-02 and by $157.2 million in 2002-03.
|
|
|
• |
The entire increase would be funded from an
|
|
|
|
anticipated expansion of the Intergovernmental
|
|
|
Transfer Program (IGT). No New GPR State Dollars
|
|
|
|
are authorized under the Governor’s budget for
|
|
|
nursing facilities.
|
|
|
• |
IGT dollars also would entirely fund $50 million rate
|
|
|
increases for other Medicaid providers over the
|
|
|
biennium.
