Sec. 288.201. MANDATORY PAYMENT BASED ON HOSPITAL NET PATIENT REVENUE. (a) Except as provided by Subsection (e), the commission of a district may require an annual mandatory payment to be assessed quarterly on the net patient revenue of an institutional health care provider located in the district. In the first year in which the mandatory payment is required, the mandatory payment is assessed on the net patient revenue of an institutional health care provider as determined by the data reported to the Department of State Health Services under Sections 311.032 and 311.033 in the fiscal year ending in 2010. The district shall update the amount of the mandatory payment on a biennial basis.
(b) The amount of a mandatory payment required under this chapter must be uniformly proportionate with the amount of net patient revenue generated by each paying hospital in the district. A mandatory payment required under this section may not hold harmless any institutional health care provider, as required under 42 U.S.C. Section 1396b(w).
(c) The commission of a district shall set the amount of the mandatory payment required under this section. The amount of the mandatory payment required of each paying hospital may not exceed an amount that, when added to the amount of the mandatory payments required from all other paying hospitals in the district, equals an amount of revenue that exceeds six percent of the aggregate net patient revenue of all paying hospitals in the district.
(d) Subject to the maximum amount prescribed by Subsection (c), the commission shall set the mandatory payments in amounts that in the aggregate will generate sufficient revenue to cover the administrative expenses of the district, to fund the nonfederal share of a Medicaid supplemental payment program, and to pay for indigent programs, except that the amount of revenue from mandatory payments used for administrative expenses of the district in a year may not exceed the lesser of four percent of the total revenue generated from the mandatory payment or $20,000.
(e) An institutional health care provider may not add a mandatory payment required under this section as a surcharge to a patient.
