Discusses rule issued by the CMS to clarify types of intergovernmental transfers of funds allowable for financing State share of Medicaid costs, limit Medicaid reimbursements for Government-owned hospitals and other institutional providers, require certain providers to retain their Medicaid reimbursements, and establish documentation requirements to substantiate that a Governmental entity is making a certified public expenditure when contributing to State share of Medicaid.
