222.73 Billing of patient charges — computation of actual costs — cost settlement.
1. The superintendent of each resource center shall compute by February 1 the average
daily patient charge and outpatient treatment charges for which each county will be billed
for services provided to patients chargeable to the county during the fiscal year beginning
the following July 1. The department shall certify the amount of the charges and notify the
counties of the billing charges.
a. The superintendent shall compute the average daily patient charge for a resource
center for services provided in the following fiscal year, in accordance with generally
accepted accounting procedures, by totaling the expenditures of the resource center for the
immediately preceding calendar year, by adjusting the expenditures by a percentage not to
exceed the percentage increase in the consumer price index for all urban consumers for the
immediately preceding calendar year, and by dividing the adjusted expenditures by the total
inpatient days of service provided during the immediately preceding calendar year.
b. The department shall compute the outpatient treatment charges, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting procedures, on the basis of the actual cost of the outpatient
treatment provided during the immediately preceding calendar year.
2. The superintendent shall compute in January the actual per-patient-per-day cost for
each resource center for the immediately preceding calendar year, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting procedures, by totaling the actual expenditures of the
resource center for the calendar year and by dividing the total actual expenditures by the
total inpatient days of service provided during the calendar year.
3. A superintendent of a resource center may request that the director enter into a
contract with a person for the resource center to provide consultation or treatment services
or for fulfilling other purposes which are consistent with the purposes stated in section 222.1.
The contract provisions shall include charges which reflect the actual cost of providing the
services. Any income from a contract authorized under this subsection may be retained
by the resource center to defray the costs of providing the services or fulfilling the other
purposes. Except for a contract voluntarily entered into by a county under this subsection,
the costs or income associated with a contract authorized under this subsection shall not
be considered in computing charges and per diem costs in accordance with the provisions
of subsections 1 and 2.
