(c)
The rate of reimbursement which shall apply each fiscal year shall be determined by the State Department of Mental Health, or its successor, the
State Department of State Hospitals, and shall include all actual costs determined by hospital and by type of service provided. Any costs resulting from overexpenditure in the previous year shall be clearly separated from actual costs projected for the contract year and identified as a part of the rate negotiation. Costs shall not include costs incurred for capital outlay relating to existing facilities or capacity, which shall remain the responsibility of the state. Costs for capital outlay related to future expansions or construction of new facilities requested by any county or cost related to innovative arrangements under Section 4355 shall be a cost to the county unless the expansion, construction or innovative arrangements are determined to be of statewide benefit.

These funds shall be used for mental health purposes.
