- The General Assembly finds that:
(1) Under an alternative payment system, a healthcare payor, when determining a healthcare provider's patient care costs, may use factors that are not under the control of the healthcare provider;
(2) A healthcare provider may not receive an appropriate share of savings or reduction in recoupment under an alternative payment system if the healthcare provider's patients have a higher cost of care; and
(3) A healthcare provider should not be penalized for higher patient care costs if any of the costs, or other factors determining reimbursement, are not under the control of the healthcare provider.
