27-5-6.1. Sole community provider fund created.

A.     The "sole community provider fund" is created in the state treasury.  The fund, which shall be administered by the human services department, shall consist of funds provided by counties to match federal funds for medicaid sole community provider hospital payments.  Money in the fund shall be invested by the state treasurer as other state funds are invested. Any unexpended or unencumbered balance remaining in the fund at the end of any fiscal year shall not revert.   

B.     Money in the sole community provider fund is appropriated to the human services department to make sole community provider hospital payments pursuant to the state medicaid program.  No sole community provider hospital payments or money in the sole community provider fund shall be used to supplant any general fund support for the state medicaid program.   

C.     Money in the sole community provider fund shall be remitted back to the individual counties from which it came if federal medicaid matching funds are not received for medicaid sole community provider hospital payments.
