Support for Multimission Hospitals: Stable Funding and Access to Care

This act aims to ensure more stable funding for so-called multimission hospitals under the Medicaid program. As a result, citizens can expect better access to medical services, including specialized care, and the maintenance of high-quality care in these facilities. The changes are intended to improve the long-term financial health of hospitals, leading to continuity of services.
Key points
Multimission hospitals will receive more predictable and sufficient payments from Medicaid, aiming to ensure their financial stability.
Access to medical services in these hospitals will increase for all patients, regardless of whether they use Medicaid or are part of the general population.
The act allows for higher adjustments for hospitals serving a large number of low-income patients, helping them cover the costs of services, including physician, outpatient, and emergency medical services.
