Payment will be made by September 27, 2007, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

 

(b)                      The installment amount of *** if Provider is listed on the 2007-08 final DSH list issued by the Department.  Payment shall be made by December 1, 2007, or as soon thereafter as practicable after the issuance of the 2007-08 final DSH list.

(a)                                              The installment amount of *** will be made by April 1, 2008, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

B.                                    Recovery, Right of Offset, and Hold Harmless

 

(1)                                Payment(s) received by Provider from the Fund for the 2007-08 state fiscal  year may be subject to recovery by the Department if the Department determines that the Provider fails at any time during the 2007-08 state fiscal year to meet the eligibility criteria for Fund disbursements, as specified in

 

5



 

Welfare and Institutions Code Section 14166.12.  If the Provider fails to return the funds within 30 calendar days from the time of the Department’s notification, the Department may offset the amount to be recovered against any Medi-Cal payments which otherwise would be payable by the Department to the Provider, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 14115.5.

 

(a)                                  Provider must promptly return to the Department all payments received from the Fund for the 2007-08 state fiscal year if the Department determines that the Provider fails at any time during the 2007-08 state fiscal year to receive and/or maintain final DSH status, under Welfare and Institutions Code Sections 14166.11, 14105.98, and 14163, for the 2007-08 DSH payment adjustment year.

specified in Welfare and Institutions Code Sections 14085.6 and 14166.12, which includes, but is not limited to, failed for any reason to maintain its Emergency Department as operational and licensed at the Basic Level or higher level.  For purposes of this Subparagraph (b), the amount equal to the pro-rata portion of Provider’s 2002-03 supplement fund payment, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 14166.12 (j), will be calculated on the number of days during the 2007-08 state fiscal year that the Provider failed to meet participation criteria.

 

(2) It is understood that payment made to the Provider pursuant to this Appendix D, and all prior versions of Appendix D, include State and federal funds.  The State shall be held harmless from any federal disallowance or withholding resulting from payment made to Provider pursuant to this Appendix D, or any prior version(s) of Appendix D, and the Provider shall be liable for any reduced federal financial participation resulting from the payment of funds pursuant to this Appendix D, or any prior version(s) of Appendix D.  In the event of federal disallowance or withholding of federal financial participation for any payments made to the Provider pursuant to this Appendix D, or any prior versions(s) of Appendix D, at the time of the federal disallowance or withholding the State, in its sole discretion, may limit its recovery from the Provider to the amount of funds

disallowed and paid by the State to the Provider.  Provider agrees that the amount of any such recovery may be recouped by the State by withholding and offsetting, under Welfare and Institutions Code Section 14115.5, the amount due from what would otherwise be the State’s liability to the Provider under this Contract or otherwise, seeking recovery by payment from the Provider, or a combination of these two methods. If, after federal disallowance or withholding and State recovery or offset of funds paid to the Provider, the State regains the federal funds disallowed or withheld, then the federal and related state funds shall be repaid by the State to the Provider.
